Is it okay for my cat to eat flour
-
It's ok for them to eat flour, but they should not eat too much. Cats are obligate carnivores which means they don't need carbs in their diet. Any carbs they do ingest are usually in the gut of small mammals.

Flour is certainly safe for a cat to ingest - it is not something that would alarm me. However, cats are carnivores and are not very good at digesting plant material or grains. So, while flour is just fine as an additive in pet food (grains are often added as part of cat food to help keep it shelf stable), and I would not worry about a cat who licked some flour off the floor, I also would discourage you from intentionally feeding it to your cat, as it is not something they are good at digesting and provides minimal nutrition. Hope this helps!
