Which, unfortunately, when it comes to the nutritional requirements, characteristics, and behavior of cats simply isn't factual.Apparently that's not my job.
My job is to present my side or information.
This is not true of cats.In climates where there is more vegetation many more animals obtain nutrition in herbavorial ways.
The study by Plantinga, above, proves otherwise.
Br J Nutr. 2011 Oct;106 Suppl 1:S35-48.
Estimation of the dietary nutrient profile of free-roaming feral cats: possible implications for nutrition of domestic cats.
Plantinga EA, Bosch G, Hendriks WH.
The study reviewed feral cat diets from around the world. Based on the data, 27 studies from 55 were selected for inclusion in the review. This yielded 6,666 datapoints.

In this table the weight (by %) of what was consumed is presented for each study:
...And this is where the studies were conducted:
As you can see, no cats, anywhere in the world, ate any vegetation that even factored in as a percentage of their diet. So your theory is incorrect.
Cats eat animals and they do not eat grains or plants, no matter where in the world they are.
