I wasn't sure which section to put this in as it's about both dogs and cats but here it goes. I have been told several times, when looking at commercial cat foods, that fish is bad for cats and should not be fed as a part of a regular diet. I have never heard this for dogs however. on this forum I see many people feeding fish to their dogs but not to their cats which seems to follow that same trend. My question is, why is fish safe for dogs but not cats?
