Seven Common Kitchen Foods That Are Toxic to Dogs and Cats

Toxicity depends on species, amount, and individual sensitivity—never use “a little is fine” as a rule.

The seven repeat offenders

Grapes/raisins, xylitol-sweetened foods, allium family, chocolate, alcohol, raw bread dough, and high-salt dishes.

First response

Call a vet or poison hotline; do not induce vomiting unless instructed.

Pet NGON is not an emergency service.


After medical clearance, a bath can remove food debris from the coat and reduce licking.

Next step: ER for xylitol or large chocolate ingestion; Pet NGON grooming only after recovery.
