Cheese
Again, small is the key word when it comes to treating your kitty. Cheese is a good source of protein for felines, but since many cats are lactose intolerant, larger portions can cause digestive issues. Try feeding your friend cottage cheese or low-lactose cheeses before attempting anything richer. Most importantly, make sure to make dairy a special surprise, not an everyday treat. (Animal Planet)

Broccoli
A cat's diet is dependent on protein, but sometimes they get a craving for veggies. If you notice your cat chomping on house plants, try feeding it a small portion of steamed broccoli. This could satisfy their desire for greens and keep them away from potentially toxic house plants. Veggies, like plants and grass, can also help your cat clear up digestive troubles. If you are interested in keeping you cat on a vegetarian diet full-time, you should talk it over with your vet before making the switch. (Care 2)
Eggs
Give your cat a real breakfast by serving up some eggs. Scrambled and hard-boiled eggs are excellent for giving your feline a dose of protein. Just be careful not to use any butter or cooking spray during the preparation of the eggs that you are planning to hand over to your kitties. While there isn't a consensus, most vets recommend staying away from raw eggs, since the same food-borne illnesses that affect humans can upset pets as well. (PetMD)
Lean Deli Meats
Serving deli meats such as turkey, ham and chicken can be a delicious way to snazz up your cat's meals. It is important to check any meat you plan on feeding your cat for preservatives, flavorings and other additives. Additionally, portions should be kept small and used only as a snack, not as your feline's main source of food. (Yahoo)

Melon
Like broccoli, melon could be a good bite to feed cats to stop them from chewing on house plants. Cantaloupe, honeydew and watermelon are fine for your cat to ingest in small quantities, as long as seeds are removed. The fruits can help you feline with digestive issues, but should be offered only occasionally because cats are carnivorous and their bodies can't digest large amounts of plant matter. (Love Meow)
Spinach
Once again, if your cat is craving some green stuff, spinach can be a good way to go, especially when you are trying to help your pet relieve tummy troubles. Spinach should not be fed to cats with a history of urinary or kidney problems, since the calcium oxalates in the leaf can form crystals in the urinary tract. (ASPCA)
