Yes — a tiny amount, fully cooked and plain.

Why it matters
Cats Protection says cooked, boneless chicken may be offered as part of a cat's treat allowance, but it is not a complete diet by itself.
How to serve it
Remove skin, fat and every bone. Do not add salt, oil, gravy, onion, garlic or seasoning.
