About BLUEBERRY

Natural blueberry refers to the fruit of the blueberry plant, found in various regions including North America, Europe, and Asia. Blueberries are small, round, and typically blue or purple in color. When it comes to pets, particularly cats and dogs, natural blueberries are safe to consume in moderation. They are non-toxic and can be a healthy treat, offering vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants. However, overconsumption can lead to digestive issues like diarrhea. Always introduce blueberries into a pet’s diet gradually and consult a veterinarian if there are any concerns.
