∙ 12y agoNo, not really. Most fruits, except for grapes and raisins, are not harmful to a cat, but it is unlikely that a cat can gain nutrients from them. Cats are obligate carnivores, so get their needed nutrients from meat, organs and bone. Commercial cat food also have all the nutrients a cat needs.
Some cats may like to nibble the occasional fruit, but this isn't usual.
