Cat Foods

There are a lot of cat foods, wet ones in particular, that feature phosphorus as a ingredient even though its terrible for cats with low kidney functioning. Oddly enough its seems its the 'holistic' and all natural ones that often feature this-plus it is often added as a vegetable matter preservative even though cats are obligate carnivores and don't process any real nutritional value from vegetable matter. So when you see foods that have peas, carrots, green beans they generally have higher levels of phosphorus added in the mix. Same goes for Fish based foods, its loaded with them. Which is why I will never feed my cats tuna out of can EVER again even as a treat. Water from the tuna(not oil) is okay poured over other dry kibble foods at a treat but no more of the tuna itself, even low sodium varieties.
