My dad went fishing several months ago, caught some fish and would like
to feed them to my cats as a treat. The fish have been sitting in the
freezer for several months and my dad just recently stuck them in the
refrigerator to thaw out. They've been in there about six days, should
that be a problem as far as spoiling is concerned? If he cooks the fish
first, would it be ok to give them to the cats just this once?

6 days is a long time. Smell it. if it stinks, don't use it. If it
has regular raw fish smell, cook it and then feed it to the cats. I
wouldn't givge them a whole lot in one sitting though, as a sudden
change in diet like that can cause GI upset.

What kind of fish? If it is salt-water, I would feed less than if it
is fresh-water.
