Cats can have pork, but only if it is cooked properly, plain, lean, and given in moderation as an occasional treat. Raw pork should never be fed to cats due to the risk of parasites and bacteria that can cause illness. Cooked pork should be free from seasonings, spices, salt, and fat, and bones should be removed to avoid choking hazards. Pork is a good protein source for cats but should not replace their balanced cat food diet because of its high fat and sodium content. Overall, feeding small amounts of cooked pork once in a while is safe for cats, but it should not be a regular part of their diet.
