There are a few fruits that we should keep away from our furry friends because they could make them very sick, so watch out if your cat has eaten the following.

Grapes and raisins: They can cause stomach problems. After ingesting them, they could suffer from vomiting, diarrhea, and even kidney failure in the worst cases.
Oranges, lemons, tangerines, and citrus fruits in general: They cause stomach irritation, as well as vomiting, diarrhea, and in some cases, they can even affect a cat’s nervous system. Generally, cats tend to avoid citrus because of their strong taste and smell; however, it is preferable to keep them out of reach to make sure they’re not tempted to take a bite of these.
Avocados: While great for humans, avocado is a high-fat food that contains a substance called persin that is toxic for cats and other animals as well. Cats, in any case, should never consume it since it will cause indigestion and damage to the pancreas.
Bananas: This might be the trickiest one of all since felines do like its flavor and, if they see it, it’s very likely that they will want a bite of this fruit. Fortunately, it’s not highly toxic to them, but it could cause stomach upset and constipation, and its high sugar content can raise their blood glucose level.
