    For one thing, cats can’t handle the level of salt in human diet. So to a human, cat food is very bland. This is also why one shouldn’t feed cat salty human food.

      That’s just…wrong? Cats have incredible kidneys and they can drink salt water.

          Yeah, if I ate a gram of salt for every pound of my body weight, I’d be eating 1/3c of salt. That’s a lot of salt!

          Dietary recommendation is 2.5-5g/day of table salt (I think that roughly correlates to sodium labels), and 1g/2lb would be about 20-40x that. Nuts!
