I wolud not do that...unless recommended by a vet.i think it would give them the runs.mineral oil is used to treat constipation in dogs and cats..but i never heard of olive oil to help them live longer.i have 9 cats.and only feed them dry cat food.and give some treats of canned turkey or tuna and sardines in oil..about once a week...they are all very healthy..the oldest is 16 years and youngest is 6 months old.they do sell a vitamin also for cats..it helps with things they are not getting in there diet.good luck..and enjoy your animal...they are Truly our best friends.
My vet has recommended olive oil for a shiny coat and will help control dandruff. Pour the teaspoon of olive oil over the food
putting olive oil in cats water helps keep furballs down and promotes a healthy coat with normal shedding practice.
the olive oil give them a sine coat, it help to keep them healthy too.
