Apricot

Dr. Mittens on Apricot

The Verdict 🐾

Ah, the apricot! A delightful little fruit that’s safe for both humans and discerning felines like myself. Yes, my dear humans, you can relax. Dr. Mittens approves of this juicy morsel. It won't send you or your fur-coated companions running for the hills!

The Taste Test

Now, you might wonder why a sophisticated kitty like myself would even consider this golden orb. It looks a bit like a bouncy ball, and let’s be real, anything that resembles a toy is worth investigating. Plus, the aroma wafts through the air like a siren’s song, beckoning us to explore its squishy goodness. But let’s be honest, if I were to nibble, it would mostly be out of sheer curiosity. After all, who wouldn’t want to sample what the weird humans are raving about?

The Puke Factor

If you happen to find your feline friend indulging in this fruity delight, fear not! Unlike some of the other green invaders around here, an apricot won’t lead to any rapid expulsion of lunch. In fact, the most you might witness is a confused head tilt. “What is this?” you might hear them think. But don’t worry, they probably won’t need a dramatic exit strategy.

Human Instructions

To my dear human servants, feel free to allow this delightful fruit to remain in your homes. Just keep it out of paw's reach, lest we engage in an unexpected game of “catch the fruity orb.” Enjoy your apricots, but remember: I’m still watching and judging your choices!
