Cats are obligate carnivores, yet the pet aisle is full of products that ignore that simple fact.
Cats need meat-based protein and plenty of water. Most 'trends' are for owners, not cats.

- Cats need milk — most are lactose intolerant
- Cats can be vegetarian — they can't, safely
- 'Grain-free' is automatically healthier — not necessarily
What actually matters
Prioritize animal protein, moisture, and portion control over buzzwords.
The Bottom Line
Read the ingredient list, not the front of the bag — and ask your vet before any big diet change.
