Kitty's food (1) - fish



According to the National Research Council, "Cats require specific nutrients, not specific feedstuffs."
The Animal Protection Institute does not recommend a vegetarian diet for cats
Also, Kitty does not like eating vegetables.
Actually, his favorite food is fiiiiiiiish.
We always give him 3 meals a day, all of which containing his favorite fish and other nuts!
Mine loves pilchards, sardines and tuna. When I'm preparing fresh fish she will try to swipe the bits of roe and waste before they get thrown away! I had two cod cutlets once on the worktop wrapped in kitchen paper (having washed and prepared them) waiting to be fried. When I returned to the kitchen one was on the floor and kitty was trying to eat it!
Actually, the domestic cat you know of today originated in Africa and preyed on small mammals such as rodents. They were taken all over the world by man and adapted to their environment. They were used aboard ships and on docks for pest control in many countries and taught themselves to fish.
