It is safe for cats to eat dragon fruit in moderation. 👍🏻

If the cat was eating it, why aren't the lip area and mouth red?
Looks like op just smashed her face in it and she's scared now.

u/gothhrat Oct 18 '24
it’s not OPs cat or their pictures. these pictures have been on the internet for a while.

u/ActivelyLostInTarget Oct 18 '24
Oh I see the flair now. Still think someone smashed a cats face into a fruit for clicks. That's just not going to be the imprint of a kitten actually eating messy food.

u/gothhrat Oct 18 '24
i agree. i think it was from one of those accounts that are borderline abusing animals to make cute pictures or videos.:/

u/ActivelyLostInTarget Oct 18 '24
I hate when that kind of content is allowed. It isn't too hard to figure out. Not trying to be a downer, but don't want other people thinking they can get away with that

I'm not surprised. If you look at the arms and the wrists.. They kind of look Asian. I really don't watch any animal content on YouTube that are Asians. I feel they tend to do a lot of crazy stuff for clicks.

Fortunately, kitty was not forced to eat it. :)
(For some reason my GIF won't upload and I dunno how to embed Reddit posts. Sorry for linking it weird.)

This is still spamming af and the film student in me wonders if they didn't place a real kitty treat inside to get the reault, but I'm glad the kitten wasn't harmed. Thanks for sharing

Uh, google "dragonfruit" and look at the images and you'll see why
Spoilers: The actual flesh of dragonfruit is white, only the skin is red. This is why she also seems to have a "ring" of red around her face.

u/RPCat Oct 18 '24
There are different varieties of dragonfruit, including ones with pink flesh, and ones with deep red flesh. A quick google image search will show this.

My cat shoves his head between my ass cheeks while I’m sleeping, shoved his face in his litter when I was transitioning the litter to a different type, shoved his face in the fruit drawer in the refrigerator… I guess some kittens just shove their face in things.

He’s a curious and playful kitten! People can downvote my comment all they want but it doesn’t make it not true lol

Is this even a real post? All of these pictures are stolen.

u/ataraxy666 American Shorthair Oct 18 '24 edited Oct 18 '24
I wish i was kidding. Just screenshot, and you can clearly see w Google that this isn't OPs cat and was likely staged to begin with.
Here's just one other reddit post using the same exact cat cat eating dragonfruit

And i know it says "not OC" but OP decided they were going to make up a fake name and story for these pics, and are actively responding to comments as if it were their own cat just to farm karma.

I'm not into cats but... that actually made me say awww, with a hard "awww face" even.

They say cats cannot taste sweet, but can they taste starch- now that is has been added as part of the palette. I have seen even cats devoured purple sweet potatoes like a tillage and newborn bunny pups.

u/Eminna_Who Oct 18 '24
The original Op just smashed the face of a poor cat on fruit and took pics for clicks on internet. And you are giving them those clicks and saying that it is "so cute'. Why support animal abuse just so you have your "cut pics"? depressing.

u/SammySammySamSamSam Ginger Oct 18 '24
Can you show me some proof? I’m asking genuinely, not trying to be an ass. I’d really like to know! My cats eats some WEIRD things that cats don’t naturally eat, so I could see this happening. Like, she won’t eat fresh salmon, but climbs all over me when I’m eating broccoli (no butter, o salt, just plain ol broccoli) She does this for other weird foods cats don’t normally like as well. Each kitty is different! Animal abuse is NOT OK!!!! And I’d ask for it to be taken down if there was proof, and contact the animal protection agency in their area if their real name and location was available.

Someone higher up posted the video these are screenshots of, and while it may not be candid, it looks like they at least didn't push the cat into anything. They may have put cat food inside to instigate it, though.

While non-toxic to cats, the main issue is the sugar which can cause the cat to become diabetic.

u/red286 Oct 17 '24
Yeah, if you feed it to them on a regular basis.
Munching a little bit off the rind isn't going to give them diabetes.

u/blahblahblah4449 Oct 17 '24
It's the same principle for everything. Humans and so do all animals need a balanced diet. It's like milk for cats, intolerance varies, my one cat never has any dairy but I give the others a bit of cheese once every month.

She just wanted to pretend she was a lion burying it's face in is pretty and getting covered in gore. This was the best she could do.

Looks like what happens when you and your girl get drunk and have fun times not realizing the surprise monthly visit.
