It seems that I can't find a lamb food that does not have beef in it. One of my cats like Halo Spot's Stew lamb (other one won't touch it), and they both seem to like the Pride Lucky's Lamb, both of which contain beef. My IBD kitty likes AND keeps both down (a miracle), and my other cat does not seem to have any adverse effects from the beef.
I also feed Pride Rockstar rabbit which both of them like (also a miracle). It seems to contain a fair amount of pork though. I am not sure why.
I have heard that beef and pork are bad for cats because of the high fat content. A couple of posters on this site have even suggested that they could clog arteries, like in humans. My male kitty is bordering on overweight at 13 1/2 pounds, so I am not sure if it is wise to feed the foods containing beef and pork. The problem is, he is a dry food addict, and the Pride Rockstar Rabbit and Pride Lucky's Lamb are the only wet foods that he will not scoff at.
What are your opinions on beef and pork? Are they okay to feed, or should they not be given to "plump" cats? Could they cause health problems?
