- Summary
- Uncooked (raw or undercooked) eggs are a food hazard for both dogs and cats. They can carry harmful bacteria such as Salmonella and E. coli, which can cause salmonellosis or food poisoning, and raw egg whites contain avidin, a protein that blocks absorption of biotin (vitamin B7), potentially leading to deficiency with regular feeding. Typical signs of illness include fever, vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, and dehydration; biotin deficiency can additionally manifest as poor coat health, dry skin, and brittle claws in cats.
