Is PEACH Toxic to Dogs and Cats?
Caution - Use Care
Generally safe in small amounts, but harmful in excess. Monitor your pet and consult your vet if concerned.
"Natural peach" refers to the fruit of the peach tree (Prunus persica), commonly found in temperate regions around the world. While the flesh of the peach is generally safe for cats and dogs to consume in small amounts, it is essential to remove the pit, leaves, and stems. These parts contain cyanogenic glycosides, which can release cyanide and are toxic to pets. Always ensure peaches are washed and pit-free before offering them to pets to avoid choking hazards and toxicity.
