What do omnivore cats eat?

Answer 1

No cat is an omnivore. An omnivore is a term given to animals that will eat both plant matter and other animals, such as bears, pigs, humans, mice, rats, badgers, etc. Every single cat, no matter what species or breed it is, is a carnivore.

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. Plants do not offer any nutrients to a cat at all, and they have trouble digesting such foods. While a cat may occasionally be seen eating grass, it is thought it is for medicinal purposes as it helps settle or clear the cat's stomach.

Answer 2

Omnivore cats typically eat a diet that includes both animal-based protein sources (such as meat, fish, and poultry) and plant-based sources (such as grains and vegetables). They require a balanced diet that provides essential nutrients like protein, vitamins, and minerals to support their overall health and well-being. It is important for cat owners to provide their pets with a high-quality cat food that meets their nutritional needs.

Answer 3

No cat is an omnivore, ALL species of cat are obligate carnivores, which means they get all their nutrients from their prey.
