Why do cats love tuna so much? Scientists may finally know

[catbyte]

5. All 3 of my cats love lapping up the tuna water yet they leave the tuna itself to dry up in their

bowls. Perhaps somebody should study that, lol. But then, two out of three of them won't eat anything but kibble, and none of them like people food all that much. Otis will eat a little bit of shrimp and Sammy will eat steak, but only if it is medium rare and cooked outside. However, she does like to lick the gravy out of the empty cat food can after I feed Outside Kitty. Outside Kitty is a fussy, militant feral who will not eat kibble or "pate"-type cat food, only chunks or shreds in gravy. He does like tuna, though. Rosie turns up her nose at all people food, but she does love canned cat food.

I have odd cats, lol, but it makes dinnertime for all of us a breeze.
