Cat question.
 
Why do cats eat fish? That makes no sense to me. :confused:

Another question... Would you feed a dog fish?

Rick V 02-10-2011 01:37 AM

What about catfish?

slodave 02-10-2011 01:45 AM

Or dogfish?

WolfeMacleod 02-10-2011 01:46 AM

Why is there no Mousefish?

slodave 02-10-2011 01:49 AM

There is. :eek:

Because they don't need a fishing licence

Actually, I don't feed fish to cats, but my dogs LOVE fish. I read somewhere, or was told by a vet, that in the wild, cats don't "fish", but dogs will eat fish (not sure if they catch them or eat dead ones that have washed up).

Like I said, my dogs love anything that smells fishy. Most of the food that we feed them is uses fish and they get treats that are made of salmon.

Something fishy in this thread...

It's gone to the dogs too.

jhynesrockmtn 02-10-2011 06:39 AM

Make sure the dogs don't get raw fish. Killed my sisters dog several years ago. I'm just trying to find a food that doesn't make my kitten fart. She's a lap cat too :-(

Kitten farts are the worst. Our cat did that, she finally out grew it when she was about 1 year old.

Our cat eats all kinds of meat, poultry, and fish. She a carnivore, a very finicky carnivore at that. She will only eat unseasoned meat, etc. I think steamed shrimp is her favorite. We only give her small pieces occasionally as a treat, it is not the mainstay of her diet.

My grandfather had two big white male (not deaf) barn cats that would go to the stream and fish when they wanted a snack. He said they started when they were around 1 year old. The stream was about 1 foot deep in the center.

Kittens do that.

Feed dry and limit the wet.

Wet cat food makes for stinky poop and a strict diet of it can lead to tartar buildup/tooth decay.

They need the dry to help clean their teeth.

Have 4 cats and only one is a true carnivore. You can't feed her by hand or you'll lose a digit. My wife and I joke that if we were alone and became incapacitated for any longer than a day there is no doubt she'd start chowing down on us.

canned cat food that is fish based is bad for cat's urinary tracks. nearly lost my cat because of that.

He was found starved as a kitten, and the hunger never left him.

Our cats both drink out of a fishbowl we have that has had a beta in it for two years. There are plenty of water sources in our house for pets, but they prefer the fishbowl.
