Cat Dog
Is it Okay to feed a cat dog food?
Theres a stray cat that always comes up for food in my house. I dont want to call animal control because Im afraid they might uthanize it. I have a dog in my house. Thats the only food I can feed to the helpless cat. Is it k for me to do that?
Answer: I can answer this question with an unequivocal “no.” Cats have very explicit nutritional needs, including taurine, and dog food simply does not contain the sorts of ingredients needed by cats to meet those needs.
Cats need taurine in there diet, where as dogs don’t-also cats need higher protein then what is neccessary for dogs. Dog food doesn’t have the nutrients that are essential for cats! Cats needs are different to the dogs, and therefore the reason for special cat food
Cats are strict carnivores,they need most of their nutrients from animal sources, but being a carnivores doesn’t mean that a carnivorous animal can survive on muscle meat only.
A wild carnivore such as a Lion will kill and eat the antelope. It will lick the hair off and chew on the skin, the organ are consumed including the stomach contents with all the partially digested grass, leaves and other grazed plant material, bones are also eatten.
Dogs are actually Omnivorous.they need alot less meat protein then cats, ferrets or snakes & feeding a high animal protein diet to a dog will take a toll on the dog’s health.a dog is designed to to digest a wide range of plant and animal products.Dog’s must eat more then muscle meat.they need plenty of carboyhdrates &fibre from vegetable matter and only a very small amount of fat.there protein can come from both plant and animal products.the other things to consider are sources of mineral such as calcium, phosphorous and of cause vitamins.
Dogs are they Carnivores? Are they really like wolves, hyenas, jackals? or Are they more like us? Is it foolish to feed them only meat? Should they be fed what there human family eats? The Truth encompasses a little of each.
In the wild, other hunting animal that seem similar to dogs, such as Wolves, hyenas eat fruit,leaves,grasses,dig for roots and even obtain vegetable matter from the stomach of their prey.”
