why can you not buy mouse or bird flavoured cat food?
Question:Lamb ,beef etc in jelly. When did you ever see a domestic moggie stalk a sheep or cow?
Answers:
Birds and mice are too small to make cat food. Besides, cats usually catch them when their trying to play with them, not usually for food.
Other Answers:
Because if a cat we're to eat a mouse or bird in real life, it would most likely be wild... and wild birds and mice could have alot od disease. So they dont want to promote people feeding their cats live mice or birds (wild or not).
Because cats don't buy cat food, owners do.
It is marketed at human owners who think their pets should have only the best -- i.e. the same meats the owners eat.
However - there is bird flavored cat food -- chicken is a bird.
There's another thing -- much pet food is meat that isn't used fro human consumption. There is a huge industry in producing meat for humans so it is easy to divert some for pet food.
Imamging the fuss if they started farming mice for cat food.
Because you can get it for free outside your own home.
i don't think there's no such thing as mouse or bird cat food plus they would want to eat the bird mouse cat food they would eat a live on
One reason is probably that they dont want to encourage the cat to go out and get live birds and mouse that taste the same and they want the cat to eat the same type of meat that they do
There is chicken and turkey flavored cat food. As for mice cat food, maybe it is too expensive to house as many mice as they would need to produce a large quantity of cat food, or maybe its just too unsanitary. are you going to volenteer for the taste job?
