  “Anything over one gram of salt per two pounds of body weight is cause for concern,” which means for a 5 lbs cat, it would take 2.5 grams of salt to cause concern. That is approximately 10 small orders of fries at McDonald’s, or two entire bags of salty ass chips

  Of course they get sodium from their food so don’t feed them chips, but also yeah they can eat a ton of salt

    Yeah, if I ate a gram of salt for every pound of my body weight, I’d be eating 1/3c of salt. That’s a lot of salt!

    Dietary recommendation is 2.5-5g/day of table salt (I think that roughly correlates to sodium labels), and 1g/2lb would be about 20-40x that. Nuts!
