Is it okay to give cats some sweet fruit juice (from fruit salad), icecream, or any other sweets? If so -- how much is acceptable? Is okay to give cats fruit from fruit salad -- my cats seem to like eating it when I cut some up in small pieces. My cats are 2 1/2 yrs. old and there are four of them -- from the same litter.

 

Interesting question!  There are certain things you should absolutely make sure are not in the fruit salad or juice, but if fresh, it should not be harmful for your cats. The things to aviod would be grapes, grape juice and the artificial sweeter xylitol- both of which can be potientially very harmful for cats!  As with anything, everything in moderation only.
