Chicken neck as a food contains a lot of protein, phosphorus and calcium. Additionally, eating this type of food (meat and hard bones) can clean teeth, improve digestion, and satisfy the animal’s need for chewing.
But chicken necks can also be dangerous to cats’ health. For example, they increase the likelihood of choking, constipation, and salmonella infection.
Before giving such a treat to your pet, grind the meat, clean it of dirt and remove unwanted parts such as feathers and head parts.
Veterinarians do not recommend giving chicken necks to cats too often. Ideally – three to four times a week. In this case, it is necessary to choose those with raw necks and observe the animal while it is eating (if anything happens, immediately rush to help).
