Short answer

Yes, a small amount of radicchio is safe for a cat with kidney disease. It’s low in calories and non‑toxic, so a few leaves won’t harm the kidneys. Serve it plain without dressing and monitor your cat for any signs of stomach upset. If you notice vomiting or other changes, give your regular vet a call.
