Melon or watermelon

Without rind and seeds

Documented data setThe flesh may be offered in small amounts; remove rind and seeds.

Rind and larger seeds can be difficult to digest or create choking or obstruction risks. Because of its sugar content, melon remains an occasional treat.

What now?

Offer only a few seedless, rind-free pieces. Contact a veterinarian after a large rind is swallowed, repeated vomiting or abdominal pain.
