I know it has been discussed on this site a lot about cats being obligate carnivores and not needing vegetables, but do all the vegetables in some canned foods really damage a cat's health? I am asking because my weird cats blatantly reject 99% of canned food that I offer them, but they love and gobble up the meat AND whole peas, carrot chunks, and green beans in one of the foods that they have decided to like. If cats don't go nibbling on vegetables in the wild, why are they so tasty in canned food? Do vegetables provide ANY benefit for cats? I asked my vet about the vegetables, and she just said they "wouldn't hurt anything."
