When feeding bones to your pet, it’s important to remember that they should be given in moderation and should not make up a significant portion of their diet. Bones can provide a source of calcium and other minerals, but they should not be relied upon as the sole source of nutrition. Additionally, some pets may have digestive sensitivities to bones or may be prone to dental issues from excessive chewing, so it’s important to monitor your pet’s overall health when incorporating bones into their diet.
If you choose to feed bones to your pet, it’s important to supervise them while they chew and to dispose of any small or sharp bone fragments. Bones should be stored in a cool, dry place and should be discarded if they become too old or brittle.

Cats and dogs can eat certain types of bones, but it’s important to make sure they are raw and appropriately sized for your pet. Cooked bones can splinter and cause injury to the digestive tract, so they should never be fed to pets. Small bones, such as those found in chicken or fish, can be a choking hazard and should also be avoided. Large, weight-bearing bones, such as beef femurs or knuckles, can be given to dogs for recreational chewing, but should be monitored to ensure they don’t break or splinter. It’s important to consult with a veterinarian before feeding bones to your pet to ensure their safety and to make sure they are appropriate for your pet’s individual dietary needs.
