Damn, look at that house. I’d hang around there for scraps.

It hasn’t been lived in since it was built like almost 20 years ago so many repairs to be done. My grandparents thought that all their kids would get along and live here but that never happened but slowly I’m gonna fix it up and maybe make like a little hostel bed and breakfast type deal one day To try and fund all these cats

Do cats get any nutritional benefit from rice? I thought they were obligate carnivores.

No. You shouldn't really give them anything but animal products. Always check the kibbles and wet food ingredients as well, plenty of those contain all sorts of garbage they use as cheap fillers

While they have evolved not to need it; Cats definitely can benefit from some carbohydrates.

Very little nutritional value it’s more for filler. They each got like a spoonful of rice because it was cooked in the chicken with the chicken was boiled so the rice at least taste a bit chicken 🤣
