The Truth About Cats Eating Human Food

Cats are obligate carnivores, meaning their natural diet is primarily meat. Their bodies have evolved over thousands of years to process and extract nutrients from animal sources, unlike omnivorous humans who have adapted to consume a diverse diet of both plants and meat.

Despite the specific dietary needs of cats, some human foods can be safely incorporated into their diet in moderation.

Hazardous Human Foods For Cats
