While cats LIKE seafood, it IS bad for them. It can lead to urinary tract blockages and stones. We have a cat who developed a blockage and had to be hospitalized... our vet said to avoid any cat foods with seafood in them, as they change the acidity of the urine and can lead to stones (especially in neutered males - because they have smaller urethras and altered cats aren't as physically active - but it also happens in unaltered cats of both genders). She said to avoid canned tuna at all costs! Chicken, liver, and beef products are encouraged, though. So if you want to treat kitty, please try one of these instead of seafood. Your kitty and mine will thank you! ;)

Will my crab get along with my cat?

I was worried about this problem to when I got my crab. I have two cats. I always have my eye on my two crabs so my cats won't get to them. Just brush them away, and say, "no" to the cat, or sometimes, if they kill, or almost kill the crab, spray them with water. I know it sounds kind of cruel, but I mean, water doesn't melt them. If you do this, your cat will learn that the hermit crab isn't prey. This should work, but you know, all cats are different. Hope this helped!
