Does anyone serve chicken eggs to their cat?

Cooked or raw? Is that a suitable food for a cat?

I find I have to keep rotating foods, he is soooo finicky these days..... and has lots of allergies too.

None of mine will eat eggs. One of Tiki cat food comes with quail eggs and they eat around that too.

Can cats eat raw eggs?
No. Raw eggs are not good for cats. When eggs are not cooked, they can harbor bacteria like Salmonella. And raw egg whites can be bad for cats. “There’s a protein called avidin in them that can bind the essential vitamin biotin (also known as vitamin B7), so cats are unable to absorb it,” Dempsey explains. Over time, that can cause a vitamin deficiency. But giving your cat cooked egg to eat prevents all of these risks.
