Cat food should be made with meat that cats naturally hunt, like mice and songbirds, instead of things like tuna, deer, and duck. Somehow I don’t think that would go over well with cat owners though.
Edit: weird typo

Catfood actually comes in three flavours: Gills and Fins, Beaks and Feet, Lips and Seaholes.
“Fresh Sparrow Flavour” on the bag: cat gives it five stars, owner returns it on the spot
I used to feed my cat raw quails. Obviously they were feather free and I would tear them apart just so there wasn’t a mess on the floor but the cat very much enjoyed his meals.
Here’s the thing though, tuna is, for completely random reasons, absurdly tasty to cats, because it has both of their favorite flavor chemicals, that otherwise are always in different foods, in one.
So yeah, you know what? I would never want to deny my little asshole the opportunity to taste something unnaturally delicious.
“Here little girl, let your mind be blown in a way you could never experience in the wild. Now please stop eating plastic.”
My idiot is going to need a “dust bunny with small stones” flavor.
before doing this, they should focus on making appealing (to cats) prescription food because it’s stressful enough when you have to put your cat on a special diet, without them having super limited options.
My cat is allergic to chicken… chicken… its in every cat food, even most the fish flavors.
There are chicken free (wet) cat foods out there. He doesnt eat any of them except one. My bear be eating the same shit everyday, happily, I guess. But he do stalk the toaster oven for tendies… you gotta watch him
Lots of good arguments in here for duck and tuna, but what the hell is Friskers thinking with Turkey and Cheese?
My cats wouldn’t know what to do with a mouse if they had one. I had a cat (RIP Tasha) whose favorite thing was turkey. Every time I had some in the oven, she went apeshit.
I like the image of a house cat taking down a full tuna now that it’s got the taste. Just don’t give it the taste for human
My cat can have deer flavored cat food the second he can manage to take down a deer.
i go to WF store , and the meat department said, some of the customer buys the bougie things like the unprocessed frozen venison, buffalo, liver(that is also for human consumption) or other parts for thier Pets some really are into this trend.
Sometimes I’d go by the meat department or to a butcher and ask them if that they had any of the trim or little side cut up bits left over that was suitable for my cat. Cats love that shit. and the butcher would just throw that shit away anyway.
Cats can and will eat tuna and duck in the wild. They’d eat deer, too, if they could take one down.
Don’t tuna weight over 400lbs? I’d love to see a housecat bring one of those in my front door. Maybe leave the head on the doorstep.
They don’t always weigh that much and they start off fairly small.
The cats here have had more than enough songbird flavored food. There are no more songbirds here.
cat food is marketed to people and not to cats. cats are broke
also, where tf do you get farmed songbirds
I assume they were not farmed.
that just makes it even less available
Ye. Ngl, I had only half understood your “farmed songbirds” sentence when I first wrote that, so my comment didn’t actually make a lot of sense, sorry.
Yeah. You’re probably not getting farmed songbirds, without people flipping out. I assume it’s not hard to farm them, just horrible PR, because people aren’t as conditioned to ignore their suffering.
So… like by that logic, should dog food come in crap flavor?
Cat crap. Other dog crap. My crap. Chicken crap.
Ah yes, the sophistication of Cat Fudge.

Why would cat owners take issue with it? I’d gladly feed her that if it was available and it’s what she liked.
