To my knowledge, cats do best with bird & rodent meats. They don't need to be eating anything with hoves or fins... Though they will probably disagree about the fishies

They will disagree violently about the fishes! I had a cat that was absolutely crazy about salmon!

My cat doesn't care much for salmon. But he absolutely loves canned tuna

Yeah, no for real. Salmon is the only thing that tempts my girl to do household food crimes

I had a cat when I was a kid that would pretty regularly snatch a fish out of the creek behind our house, and she definitely seemed to enjoy the fish. But also squirrels, rabbits, birds, lizards… :(

That was a long time ago. I know now that cats really shouldn’t be let outside because of the (obvious) havoc they wreak on wildlife

Please understand, my furry queen eats canned chicken & liver meals with freeze dried chicken treats for entertainment... but also freeze dried minnow treats. They just make her face so happy & her fur so soft
