Now you may find this a strange question but i'd love to know the answer, Why is there no Pork in wet/tinned cat food? Well i've never seen any, you get liver,duck,turkey,chicken,trout,cod,tuna, and lots more but i have never seen Pork. Is there a reason why, arn't cats allowed pork?

My cat will occasionally eat pork, but he prefers turkey, chicken and fish much better. It could be a taste thing going on with the companies not wanting to market flavors that don't sell as well.

my cats too love pork and especially ham, infact i have got one of my cats into a very bad habit. Oneday i went into the fridge and gave him a small piece of ham as a treat, I now cannot go to the fridge without him being there. If i go into the kitchen to make a cup of tea i look down and there he is waiting for me to get the milk out.. Crafty little thing he knows i cannot resist his little face....

Pork and ham are both bad for cats. You will also never see any onion products in foods either.

Oh, so i should stop giving my cats ham as a treat? Do you know why it is bad for them? Thanks for any advice. Sorry, nothing to do with cat food now, would just like to say that you look like harrison ford in your pic... :-) hope thats a compliment...
