Cats & Gingerbread

Does anyone know if gingerbread is safe for cats to eat? I am going to be
making gingerbread cookies and I know my cats will be curious because they
are always interested in what is being made in the kitchen. This will be the
first time I'll be baking gingerbread cookies so I know all 3 cats will
wonder into the kitchen when they are being baked.

Are you going to be feeding the cats the cookies? How would they get any of
it? I made chocolate chip cookies tonight and my cats didn't give two
sh*ts. If I'm not opening a can or unwrapping lunchmeat, they don't care.

The cats are always curious about stuff being made in the kitchen especially
if I am eating it. I might give them a taste as long it is safe to give to
them. They won't get a lot of it.

Well, I sincerely doubt that the cats will be interested in the cookies.
But, just for the hell of it, I Googled "ginger" and "safe for cats" and
came up with a few sites selling herbal remedies that included ginger. I
think they will be fine.

LOL! I made Tollhouse cookies this afternoon and they didn't give two sh*ts
either. I cook all the time, but they have this weird way of being able to tell
if it's something they're interested in or not.
Just let me start cutting up a chicken, and there are cats everywhere.

You'd be surprised what the cats would be interested in around here.
Whenever I am in the kitchen, Icarus is right there with me and he also gets
on the counter. Thanks for googling the ginger info.

I think the other posts are right...Ginger should be fine. Chocolate,
however is HIGHLY toxic for cats.

That part I know. I would never give my cats chocolate.

Shaina will try to eat anything that i am eating. if i am eating at
my desk, she gets on the desk and goes for whatever i am about to put
in my mouth, literally. she even eats crackers. she is really weird.
of course, if she doesn't like something, she proceeds to bury it.

Hi,
Chocolate is bad for cats, someone else may be able to tell you the
ingredient in it that's poisonous to cats. But it is bad for them.
Sorry to say.
