Hi - I see on the list that tomatoes are not good for cats. My cats love them, but only get a few diced pieces at a time. I don’t feel that vegetables in large amounts would be good for them, as they are carivores by nature. The one cat even loves (drives me crazy begging when I use it) lettuce, plain. I figure as he is a house cat, perhaps it is like an outdoor cat cating grass?

Thanks for the great information -
