Pepto Bismol contains bismuth subsalicylate, which is toxic to cats at relatively low dosages, so no, you absolutely should not give it to your cat. In general, you should never medicate your pets without the advice of a veterinarian, as things that are fine for us can be quite bad for them.

Cats process things differently than do humans, and so some things that work for us could kill them, even in quantities proportionate to their weight.
