About PULASAN

Pulasan is a tropical fruit scientifically known as *Nephelium ramboutan-ake*. It is closely related to the rambutan and lychee. Pulasan trees are native to Southeast Asia, particularly found in Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. While there is limited specific research on pulasan's toxicity to cats and dogs, it is generally advisable to avoid giving pets tropical fruits like pulasan, lychee, or rambutan. These fruits can contain high sugar levels and potentially harmful seeds, which could pose health risks, including choking hazards or digestive issues. If you suspect your pet has consumed pulasan or any unfamiliar fruit, it is best to consult a veterinarian promptly.
