#1 TUNA IS NOT SAFE for your cat. except in VERY small doeses due to high mercury levels and insufficient nutritional content.
#2 Corn meal is VERY bad for your cat.If large amounts of grains are included in the diet, more essential nutrients are displaced by this cheap source of unnecessary calories. Intake of carbohydrates is the number one cause of obesity in cats. It causes indigestion, regurgitation, or diarrhoea, and Feline Future has traced grains and vegetables in cat foods as an overlooked cause of self induced bilateral alopecia (hair loss) in cats. Large amounts of sugars (and any amount of sugar is above the norm for cats) causes the endorcine system to overwork and malfunction, predisposing cats to the risk of pancreatitis and diabetes.
