As much as we love waffle cones, it's important to remember that our feline friends are not able to eat them. Cats are obligate carnivores, which means that their bodies are designed to digest and use only animal-based proteins. Waffle cones contain no animal products and are made mostly of sugar, flour, and fat. Eating even a small amount of waffle cone could cause gastrointestinal upset in your cat. So while it may be tempting to share your ice cream with your kitty, it's best to resist the urge and give them a little catnip toy instead.
