Best Answer

House cats eat dry and wet cat food that their owners give them. Some owners like to give the cats treats and ,if the owner loves to spoil their cat, leftover food from the households meals.

Outdoor cats may hunt birds, bugs and small mammals (such as mice, rats, ect.) and lizards because the cat has natural instincts, whether they are hungry or not. Some cats may eat the hunted animal if hungry or leave the animal for later when the cat is hungry or not even eat it!

Although indoor cats may be able to hunt animals that get inside of the house or if the cat sneaks outside.

What do cats eat for living?

If they're in the wild, small or large mammals depending on what species they are. Feral cats scrounge in garbage, hunt what small mammals they can find, and eat what some humans will put out for them. Inside house cats usually eat the cat food that their human friends will feed them, though they may hunt a bit depending on the house but that's unusual nowadays. Outside and inside house cats will eat what their humans give them as well as hunt, usually.
