Thanks for the info @library_napper, I didn’t know that. Are those enzymes present in plant-based cat food or is it given separately. I knew people who tried feeding plant-based dry cat food to their cats and they still ended up with nutritional deficiencies. I wonder if those enzymes would have made a difference
Cats can, actually. You just have to add enzymes to the food to help it break down so they can absorb it.
And other additives, of course, which are already added to most store bought cat foods already.

The enzymes need to be added just before feeding it to them. If it’s added before, it would break down the nutrients in storage
Ah, thanks. That explains the problems cats that only eat the dried food experience
