Quick Answer

Tortilla Chips (Salted, Plain Corn) is safe in strict moderation for your Cats. Cats gain nothing from tortilla chips and face risks from the high salt and fat content. The crunchy corn triangle may intrigue a curious cat, but the sodium can stress kidneys, and the fried oil can cause diarrhea. Flavored varieties often contain onion and garlic powders, which destroy red blood cells. A tiny, unsalted plain crumb is unlikely to harm, but there is no justification for offering chips to a feline. They are nutritionally void for obligate carnivores.
