yes it is bad they should not eat it My 13 year old horse has ate cat food on 3 different occasions. He is swelled up every where & has hives. I'm wondering if this is a reaction to the cat food. I don't know what else it could be. His hay has not changed. The vet has never seen anything like his swelling and is out of ideas. He is currently on steroids to take the swelling down. I would appreciated any info.
What else can I help you with?
What does cat food look like?

Is it bad to feed ferret food with cat food to a cat?
High quality cat food can be fed to ferrets, they are both obligate carnivores and only digest meat. However, ferret food should not be given to cats as cats have specific nutritional requirements which only complete cat food can provide. Food should be minimal in grains and vegetable/fruit ingredients and high in meat based protein. Cat food is regulated by AAFCO. There is no governing body regarding ferret food, which means manufacturers can put whatever they want into the food. Cat food is designed for a cat's digestive track, ferret food (supposedly) for a ferrets digestive system, though there are no studies proving that high quality cat food shouldn't be fed to ferrets

Not as bad as cat food. But horses are herbivores. They eat grass, alfalfa, and oats. Dog food has a high cereal content, so a horse could probably eat a little bit of it without ill effect. But a steady diet of dog food, designed for carnivores, would likely contribute to health problems over a long period of time. Cat food would be even worse for horses. But chickens--the egg laying mix for chickens typically lacks sufficient protein, and so occasionally a handful of cat food is good for them.
