Did you read the article on the internet?
If yes have you got the link? I add carrots to my cats raw food meals (not
a whole lot) and they do fine.

My tabby will drink a few ounces of carrot juice from time to time
(say once a month). Strangest thing!

Carrots won't hurt cats, per se. However, cats can't convert beta carotene
into vitamin A and therefore need preformed vitamin A.
