Carbohydrates used in cat foods. Carbohydrates used in cat foods generally include the starchy portion of a plant that can be easily broken down in the digestive tract of the cat. These carbohydrates are found in high concentrations in cereal grains such as rice, wheat, corn, barley, and oats.
Pet food manufacturers generally rely on animals or plants (or both) as protein sources. Animal sources of protein include beef, chicken, lamb and fish; corn and soy are common plant sources. But some proteins are better than others at providing essential amino acids that can be used by the animal. In general, animal sources of protein yield a better balance of essential amino acids for dogs and cats than plants do. But if the protein source isnât digestible, the diet wonât be effective.
