Jam and Jelly: Safe for Dogs and Cats?
CautionDogs
Jam and jelly should not be offered to dogs because they are concentrated sources of sugar and some products contain xylitol or grape ingredients. Check the fruit and sweetener on the label after an exposure.
CautionCats
Jam and jelly are not suitable for cats because they are sugary, sticky, and nutritionally unnecessary. Grape flavors and sugar-free sweeteners are separate concerns, so check the actual label.
