Its not safe because something might go wrong in the scan and the antibiotic/sleeping injection might react with food and it won't show a clear and good picture of your cat's insides. -------------------------------------------------Improvement By the wording of the question, 'cat' scan may actually refer to CT scan or Computed (Axial) Tomography scan. Fasting before the scan for 4 to 6 hours or more may be required for certain scans requiring contrast media (iodine-based dyes to visualize certain organs better) or scans of the abdomen to avoid compounding results since certain food items may mimic human tissue in its response to X rays or reduce the effectiveness of contrast provided by contrast media.
I hate to break it to you, but cat scans have literally nothing to do with any species of felines, except for the coincidentally similar names.
do lymph nodes show on a cat scan
They are just as they say. An abdominal cat scan is just of that area and a pelvic cat scan is just of that area. Usually if an abdominal cat scan is ordered a pelvis is included so as to cover all things in both areas but if a pelvic cat scan is ordered it usually does not include the abdomen.
You do not have to stay home after a CAT scan. The procedure has no residual effects. After you leave the clinic or hospital, you can resume normal activities if you are otherwise healthy.

Computerized Axial Tomography
Other tests that may be conducted are: computed tomography (CAT or CT) scan

CAT SCAN is a medical procedure and so it would need to be arranged by a doctor or health-care professional.
