About STRAWBERRY

Organic strawberries are strawberries grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. They can be found in grocery stores, farmers' markets, and organic farms. Regarding pets, organic strawberries are safe for both cats and dogs when given in moderation. They are non-toxic and can even provide nutritional benefits, such as vitamins and antioxidants. However, due to their natural sugar content and potential to cause stomach upset, they should be offered as an occasional treat rather than a regular part of a pet's diet. Always wash strawberries thoroughly and remove the leaves and stems before offering them to pets.
