yes

No

NO! It is not healthy for anyone to eat tuna fish every day. The mercury level in tuna is scary. 3 times a week is ok.

---

Maybe not eveyrday, but a few times a week is ok. It is protein they need. But just feeding them tuna is not healthy they need dry food too.

Do not feed a cat canned tuna daily because it's too high in aluminum & mercury. A little bit weekly is alright. Also give your cat cooked turkey & chicken.

no only once in a while

Too much of a good thing isn't a good thing!

Why is this under the fish catagory?

Mercury levels in tuna may be high, however, many weight lifters eat pounds tuna everyday. The amount of mercury might not help your cat but it's not going to kill it. Also your cat really doesn't need dry food. Most of them aren't any better then a snickers would be for a human. I've feed my cat pure meat (tuna, turkey, and beef) for the last ten years. He's 19 now and still in very good health.

I have worked in the Veterinary field for 20 years, and no, you do not want to feed your cat Tuna every day, or even at all. For one thing, tuna is way too high in Mercury and can cause a lot more damage to your feline friend than it does to you. They are a lot smaller than a human, and their body system is much more delicate. Secondly, studies have shown that a lot of human grade tuna has way too much protein for a cat to repeatedly digest and process, and can be linked to liver and kidney failure.

No, tuna has chemicals that are not good for cats in large quantities, like they get eating it every day. It also lacks chemicals cats need to be healthy.
