They get all necessary nutrition from wild prey, such as birds, rodents, and even small reptiles. Some people feed raw food diets to their housecats that mimic the natural diet, and as long as basic precautions are taken to ensure these meats are free of bacteria and that the food is balanced, it is a very healthy diet.
Cats are desert animals, and in their natural state, they drink next to no water. Instead, they get most of their required moisture from the prey (raw meat is up to 85% water).
