Why this recommendation?
Plain broccoli can be considered a vegetable treat, but replacing meals with a large vegetable portion is a different question. Broccoli alone is not a balanced meal.
What to prepare or check
Wash and cut broccoli; keep it an optional treat.
When not to offer it
Do not fill the meal bowl with it or add sauce or butter.

An “avoid” recommendation does not mean every accidental bite is poisoning. Ingredients, amount, time and the animal matter.
- Stop further access and keep the food or packaging.
- Record the species, product, estimated amount and time; say when an amount is unknown.
- For a known hazardous ingredient, or unusual weakness, tremors or breathing, contact a veterinarian promptly. Do not wait for symptoms after a known toxic exposure.
Do not induce vomiting or give human medicines on your own.
