Is Avocado toxic to dogs and cats?

Why Avocado is considered safe

Non-toxic to dogs and cats according to Pet Poison Helpline, and PetMD veterinarians call the flesh low risk. The persin that poisons birds, rabbits, horses, and livestock is less of a concern for dogs and cats, but most of it sits in the skin, pit, and leaves, so keep those away from pets. The real hazards are mechanical: the pit is a serious choking/intestinal obstruction risk, and the fruit's high fat content can trigger pancreatitis in a large ingestion. ASPCA rates avocado for horses only, not for dogs or cats.
