I read in the paper that you should not give cats ham, but the article didn't explain why not (just gave a list of foods that they said should be off-limits) and I have to say that my two cats love ham and have never had any ill effects from it. Years ago my family had a cat who loved ham so much that he would come running when he heard us open the drawer that contained the electric knife with which we sliced the ham! I would say that with all human food, it's best not to give too much at one time, but I have never seen a bad reaction by my cats to ham.

No, it's not a good idea because the salt and fat is too hard for them to digest and it can affect their pancreas.

Ham would not be a good choice to feed cats, as it has a lot of salts and added preservatives. I suggest chicken, or fish products if you want to treat your cat.

If the kitten gets the chance, yes.
