No not at all on the contrary it brings them some protein :)

patrickwood · Answer

No, most cats do it, just be careful your cat doesn't eat a wasp or any other stinging insect because this could be dangerous!

Personally I don't think so because my cat chases and eats flies too and it does nothing to him. But I guess there is no harm in asking your vet
