Can cats or dogs eat coconut water?
Cats: No ruling yet · Dogs: Use caution — For dogs, the AKC says coconut water is fine as an occasional treat — never as a replacement for water, and only if it's free of artificial sweeteners like xylitol. For cats, no veterinary body has issued direct guidance on coconut water. Dogs can have a small sip now and then, not as a water substitute. Skip it for cats until there's data. If anything seems off, talk to your vet.
