I mistakenly ordered cat treats for my dog. Can I still give it to her? It’d be a waste if I threw it away because I don’t have any cats around to give it to.

Yes, dogs can eat cat treats. But that doesn’t mean they should. Though cat treats don’t usually have anything that could be toxic to dogs, it’s still cat treat – it’s not made for dogs, so it’s not healthy for them.
If you definitely don’t want to throw them away, you can give them to your dog once in a while, not regularly, and look for signs of stomach upset. Always ask your vet when in doubt.
Better yet, bring them with you when you go out and just give them to any stray cats you encounter.
