Is cat omnivores

Answer 1

No one has ever experienced that but by my theory i will tell you maybe yes:

Because if a cat hasn't eaten since 3 weeks; if you give it human flesh to eat, it will eat it

Another Answer:

I'm not sure what the correlation between a cat eating human flesh and is a cat an omnivore is, but eating human flesh certainly does not make a cat an omnivore.

All cats, even domestic cats, are strict carnivores. They get all their needed nutrition from meat, organs and bones of their prey. A cat's digestive system has evolved to be specialised into breaking down muscle and bone quickly and turn it into vital nutrients. A cat does not need to eat plant matter, especially grain and corn and other cereals that are found in most pet foods.

Some say cats are omnivores because they eat grass. This is incorrect. Cats eat grass to help aid digestion, and does not provide the cat with any nutrients.

Answer 2

Cats are called obligate carnivores which means they must eat meat to survive, as meat and other aspects of prey (such as organs and bone) supply all the nutrients and moisture a cat needs. This is why it is important to feed your pet cat a good quality pet food that has a high meat content, and low on plants such as corn, wheat, grain and soy.

Sadly, a lot of pet foods put rice and wheat and corn mixed into dry food for cats, which may lead some to believe cats are actually omnivores. This couldn't be further from the truth. Rice, corn, wheat and other cereals provides nothing in the way of nutrition and pet food manufacturers add this as cheap filler to bulk up the food. Cats cannot derive any nutrients from plants at all.

Yes, cats do indeed eat grass, but this is for medicinal purposes as this helps cats to clean out their stomachs - the grass itself does not provide any nutrients at all.

Cats, if have access to outside, will often hunt and eat what they catch, which is usually mice, small birds and other small mammals.

Answer 3

No, cats are obligate carnivores. Their diet should primarily consist of animal-based proteins to meet their nutritional needs, as they have specific dietary requirements that can only be met by consuming meat.
