    I mean literally cats are carnivores, even the domesticated ones are 100% meat.

    So what’s in cat food? Taurine? Arginine? Cats can’t convert amino acids into vitamin A…

    Their food is way crazier than ours because we see a fluff ball and not an obligate carnivore.

      Meat or fish is usually one of the top ingredients if you look at the label.

        But with a ton of extras… and why?

        I should hope my past comment showed I do look at the label… the food is not a straight tuna can.

        Last thing I want is to get into a vegan lion argument. What are you getting at?

          Because you can provide the necessary amount of meat for a cat without it being 100% pure meat, and being less than 100% pure meat:

          A. Is cheaper

          B. Is less calorie heavy (which is a concern with cats getting chonk)

          C. Keeps better, like pemmican
