Why isnt pork used in cat food
21 Answers and no one answered this correctly. Amazing how no one cares enough to actually research these things.
Pork is not used in pet foods because in the list of meats that cats AND dogs can digest, pork is WAY down the list.
At the top is eggs, followed by chicken and other poultry. then you have lamb and fish. then you would have your beef and pork. Any company that nows about pet nutrition would realize that putting pork in the food means that it compromises the pets health because even though the package may as 32% protein, because they can't digest pork, they really only absorb 15% of the protein.
Low grade companies like Purina, Pedigree, Iams, Science Diet, etc would use pork but it would most likely be labelled as 'animal' or 'meat'..meaning the company got it from a rendering plant and has no idea what is actually in the food.
So, just for the record, if you do a bit of digging, you will find that this is the correct reason.
