No, cumin is not poisonous to cats. The tiny amounts used in flavoring pet treats or human foods are generally safe. Keep an eye on your cat for any unusual stomach upset, but a pinch of cumin is unlikely to cause harm. If your cat shows signs like vomiting or diarrhea, give your own veterinarian a call.
