Cooked fish is just fine in small amounts as a treat, or feeding a sick cat white fish is just fine. Cooked fish should never, however, be the main diet of a cat as it provides it with none of the nutrition a cat requires. Cats are meat eaters, not fish eaters.

For the same reason some people don't like it, I suppose. My house cat won't eat any canned cat food. The stray that hangs out absolutely loves the stuff though. Cats are picky animals just like people. If they eat enough of one type of food long enough, then that is all they really fancy. Try to give a kid something besides mac and cheese or peanut butter & jelly and you'll likely get the same reaction as giving a house cat something he doesn't prefer.

Your cat might get hyper after eating tuna because he likes it so much. Cats love seafood and it makes them happy once they eat it.

Is it healthy for a cat to only eat can tuna cat food?

Cats can eat tuna, but should only ever eat very small amounts occasionally. Tuna alone does not have all the nutrients cats need, and human-grade tuna can be high in phosphorous and other metals that could harm a cat if fed regularly. Tuna and other fish should only ever be fed as a treat and not part of their daily diet.

Do cats have preferences to which brand of food they eat eg choosing sheba over whiskas?

I have quite a few cats! Cats have personal preferences just like people. I have one cat that doesn't like canned food at all. She doesn't like tuna fish, chicken or anything else. She just wants dry cat food. I have another cat that will eat just about anything I put in front of him. Canned food, dry food, green beans, spinach, even my coffee! Some of them don't like salmon while other ones love it. It just depends on the cat!


Could you give a cat lemon juice on tuna?

Cats like tuna and it is nutritious. But there are valid reasons why cats should only be fed canned tuna in moderation.1) Pure tuna does not contain all of the nutrients that cats need, and they could develop deficiencies if a varied diet is not provided. If you are providing all of your cat's food, it is less likely to seek out foods that provide a balanced diet.2) Cats fed a rich diet of fish can lose their taste for other foods.3) Some cats can develop a condition called steatitisfrom fatty foods. Tuna, especially packed in oil, may deplete a cat's vitamin E.4) Tuna has slightly elevated levels of mercury, which can accumulate over time.

Tuna fish, IF you're planning to buy cat food that day or the next. Cats like it but it's kinda bad for them as human grade canned tuna has a high level of phosphorous, which can be dangerous to a cat if fed long-term.
