Adding food attractants to cat food will cause the following conditions in cats:
1. Overeating: If cat food contains food attractants, it may cause cats to overeat, leading to obesity and other health problems.
2. Allergy: Some cats may be allergic to food attractants in cat food, causing skin irritation, digestive problems and other health problems.
3. Unbalanced diet: If cat food contains excessive attractants, it may lead to an unbalanced diet and lack of basic nutrients, vitamins and minerals needed for cat health.
4. Addiction: Food attractants can make cats addicted to certain types of food, making it challenging to switch to a different diet without causing stress or health problems.
5. Dental problems: Some cat foods containing food attractants may cause dental problems such as tartar accumulation and tooth decay due to their high sugar content.
So how do we identify whether there are food attractants in cat food?
1. Check the ingredients: Look for ingredients like animal protein, fat, and flavors like chicken, turkey, salmon, tuna, and liver, which are known to be attractive to cats.
2. Observe your cat’s behavior: If your cat eagerly eats its food, there is likely an attractant in the food.
