Whether it is a pet dog or a cat, while you may want to give them treats often, know that they aren’t good for your pet’s weight and overall health. Know that treats should generally not make up more than 10% of your pet’s daily caloric intake. Giving your pet too many treats can interfere with their appetite, making them avoid regular meals, and causing them to become overweight or obese, all of which could lead to health problems in the future.
