    It's the same with my cat. I bought it live crucian carp and boiled it, and it only drank soup and didn't eat fish. Bought chicken breast to boil, it smelled and turned its head away.

    I don't like to eat beef either, and pork occasionally gives some face. I made them a small pot of nutritious meals based on a recipe online, consisting of diced chicken, diced meat, vegetables, eggs, and a little fresh milk. I smelled the incense, and when I took out two of them, I didn't give any face, so I ate a few small bites and ran away.

    So, even summarize and summarize, and finally found the following things they like to eat (limited to two in my house, not all), for your reference. To be honest, some things are a little weird, hehe, see the smile.

    1. Noodles. The noodles have to be fed to them, and they like to lick them a little bit and put them in their mouths. I can eat half a bowl at a time, hehe. But put it in a bowl and don't eat it.

    2. Chicken wings. Maybe it's tender, take the meat off the chicken wings and mix it with the cat food, they will eat the chicken first and then the cat food.

    4. Steamed bread. Steamed buns can be of all kinds, multigrain, white flour, corn, and the soft and tough skin on top is peeled off and one by one. But the steamed buns themselves are not much of interest.

    5. Stir-fried chestnuts in sugar. I love to eat them, and once I gave them a taste and it became our mutual favorite. Of course, it is fed after it is peeled.

    6. Baby rice noodles. This is for them to mix cat food in the winter. The rice was very fragrant, and the cat food was steaming, and immediately the two pigs flew over and ate it very happily.

    That's what my cat loves, and it's pretty vegetarian in summary, but it's still chubby, haha. Of course, these are complementary meals, and the staple food is still cat food. You can observe your cat again, it's not interested in fish, we can try something else

    Summary. Hello, it's normal for cats not to like to eat fish. Not every cat loves to eat fish, and some cats may not be born with a love of fish, or because cats that have barely touched fish since childhood do not like to eat fish when they grow up.

    In addition, cats can make up for taurine by eating fish, but when they don't need to make up for this nutrient, they will also not eat fish.

    Hello, it's normal for cats not to like to eat fish. Not every cat loves to eat sharphead, some cats may not be born with a love of fish, or because of the slippery sensitivity, cats that barely get fishy since childhood do not like to eat fish when they grow up. In addition, cats can make up for taurine by eating fish, but when they don't need to make up for this nutrient, they will also not eat fish.

    Oh, okay.

    Thank you. Can cats understand me?

    Hello, experiments have shown that cats cannot fully understand human speech, mainly because they are born with this awareness. But cats can understand the high-frequency words that humans say to them on a daily basis, the words that are repeated when humans communicate with them at home, and some representative sounds. They will observe people's expressions and tone of speech to determine the mood of the person as a whole.

    Although your cat can't fully understand you, that doesn't mean they can't understand your language.

    It all starts with the eyes of the feline.

    Anyone who loves cats knows that cats have big eyes that have a lot to do with the cat's diet. Cats are nocturnal creatures, and in order to adapt to a pitch black environment, they must have excellent eyesight. Taurine is a substance that can improve night vision, this sulfur-containing non-protein amino acid accounts for 50% of the total free amino acids in the retina, and has a promoting effect on photoreceptor cells in the retina of cats.

    It is reported that if there is a lack of taurine in the cat's food, it will lead to retinal degeneration, and long-term deficiency will lead to blindness.

    However, cats are unable to synthesize taurine in their own bodies. Due to the lack of the rate-limiting enzyme for the synthesis of taurine - cysteinate decarboxylase, the cat cannot use methionine and cysteine as raw materials to synthesize the taurine required by the body, and needs to be extracted from animal protein. Studies have shown that taurine is found in many animals, with fish and shellfish being the most abundant, and rats also contain a large amount of taurine.

    The cat's "penchant" for eating fish and mice can be seen from this. Today's cat food sold in supermarkets also contains a lot of taurine.

    As for why fish in the water became a meal for cats on land, there is a theory that fishermen in ancient Egypt fished in boats on the lower Nile, while cats were kept on boats to catch mice. When the cat does not have enough food, the fishermen will feed the cat with the trash fish they catch, and the cat is very interested in this delicious and nutritious food, and gradually develops the habit of eating fish, and inherits this habit.

    However, this "acquired inheritance theory" has been questioned, because the core spirit of animal evolution theory is "natural selection", and acquired "good genes" are not widely accepted by the academic community.

    In fact, not all cats are highly adapted to life on land. When people think of cats, they often think of "domestic cats", and domestic cats are just close relatives of wild spotted cats. There may not be many domestic cats that can swim, but their close relatives leopard cats and fishing cats are both strong swimmers in the cat family.

    The ocelot is good at both climbing trees and swimming. They inhabit mainly forests and rainforests, usually in humid areas close to river channels. Because of their ability to swim, fish and amphibians are on their diets in addition to small mammals such as rodents, birds, reptiles, etc.

    Fishing cats, unlike other cats, have semi-webbed toes and are very good at swimming and diving, allowing them to move freely in semi-aquatic environments. Similar to its close cousin, the leopard cat, the fishing cat lives in areas rich in freshwater resources such as rivers, streams, reed wetlands and mangrove wetlands below 1,500 meters above sea level. However, due to the destruction of wetlands and forests on which fishing cats depend, and the overexploitation of fishery resources, this beautiful creature is on the verge of extinction.

    It is worth noting that although cats love to eat fish, they are "too much".

    It turns out that fish-based foods are high in histamine, a chemical conduction substance in animals that can affect the reactions of many cells, including allergies, inflammatory reactions, gastric acid secretion, etc. If the cat is allergic to fish, coupled with the digestive disorders that may be caused, this foodie is likely to gradually "go on a hunger strike" due to eating a large amount of fish, or even take a small life.

    Cats don't know how to swim, so why do they like to eat fish?

    According to my observation and analysis, it is concluded that cats have a playful nature, and the food they choose is also the kind of food they choose, for example, everyone knows that cats catch mice and eat mice, the reason is that cats provide this kind of food in the living environment before they are domesticated and petted, but also because cats like to enjoy the fun process of catching mice. Therefore, we will also find that cats also prey on small birds, and even see butterflies to provoke.

    Since cats are interested in running on the ground and flying in the sky, why can't cats who are curious and active by nature be "suspicious" of the fish swimming in the water?

    Although it can't go into the water, doesn't it still and won't go to the sky? Didn't you catch a bird? Cats have a strong ability to grasp opportunities and catch birds that fall to the ground or fish that float to the surface.

    So why do you "love fish so much"?

    It is not difficult to imagine that cat owners live in bungalow yards (as was the case earlier), and the neighborhood is not in a hurry to buy fish for the time being, or want to eat fresh and put it in the water tank, and what do you want to make pickled fish and hang it on the eaves to cool, which can provide opportunities and challenges for cats. It should be easy to fish in the water tank, and it is not difficult to pick fish in the room, and the greedy cat face after the cat succeeds is to make the fish owner hold a grudge, so a pass on ten or ten hundreds, everyone will remember that cats love to eat fish, which may also be a kind of false rumor, but the answer to the nutritional content of fish is also based on science.

    Although my cat likes to eat fish, he prefers to play with fish compared to eating. . . The small fish in the fish tank, he all went to play and play one by one, and when he had enough of playing, he would eat them. . .

    Cats like to eat fishy, and fish are fishy, so like it, right? That's how I understand it.

    Because before the cat evolved into a terrestrial animal, the fish always bullied him.
