Yes, you can eat most cat food, but it's not recommended. There are not as many health regulations in the making of pet food, so your chance of getting a disease is higher.

That said, most wet cat foods are made of fish, poultry or beef, and most dry cat foods are primarily made of grain. So, they're not inherently bad for humans, just not very tasty.

Well, since cats are as likely to get sick from bad food as humans, then yes, cat food is safe for humans to eat. But this is not going without saying that you should eat it, because it's food meant for cats, not humans.

Um, no. Cat food is for cats, not humans. Plus it tastes disgusting. Don't ask me how I know.

Can cat food be eaten by humans?

No, it is not ideal to feed a dog cat food. Dogs love cat food because cat food has much more protein and fat in than dog food does. Cat food does not have the correct nutrients a dog needs - cat food has lots of added nutrients that cats cannot synthesize themselves but dogs can, so dogs fed on cat food can get too much of certain nutrients, and also become overweight from too much protein and fat.


How much eat a cat daily?

uh... I'm not sure if you asked for this information or a different thing but it depends on the weight of the cat, so if it's a kitten (around 7 lbs) then it should eat about 6 ounces of cat food. But if it's an adult cat (around 13 lbs) then it should eat about 10 ounces of cat food.
