Cats cannot eat wick cakes. Wick cakes are made from glutinous rice flour. Cats’ gastrointestinal digestion and absorption functions are weak. Therefore, eating wick cakes may cause bloating, indigestion and other conditions in cats. Moreover, wick cake contains a lot of sugar and lard, which may cause obesity in cats and have a negative impact on their teeth.

What to do if a cat accidentally eats wick cake:

1. Observe the cat’s condition. If the cat accidentally eats a small amount, it should not have much impact on the body. If there is no abnormality within 24 hours, the owner does not need to worry.

2. If there is slight discomfort, the cat owner can give the cat a little water to dilute the concentration of the food it eats, and can also take some probiotics to regulate the gastrointestinal tract.

3. If the cat has severe diarrhea, artificial oral rehydration salts or infusion are needed to adjust the cat's water, electrolyte and acid-base balance.

4. If there are other symptoms, symptomatic treatment is needed and the pet should be sent to the pet hospital in time.
