Why cats eat mice

An important reason for cats to eat mice is to replenish the taurine in their bodies, and cats eat fish for the same reason. Cats have great night vision, but this ability needs to be maintained by ingesting taurine from rats, and fish also contain the taurine that cats need, although in much smaller amounts than rats. Cats are carnivores and not only eat rats, but also fish, birds, rabbits, ducks and even frogs are all on the cat’s plate. Although there are times when he will eat something that is not meat, it may not be absorbed.
