I sure get tired of all the hubub about protein content. Protein content
does not tell anything very much IMO. What is more important is amino acid
balance and digestibility, toxicity -- and actual field results.
Protein content is a distraction in cases where the levels are within a wide
range, and is used by scoundrels to create artificial distinctions where few
can be easily made. We know better, I hope. Protein content is just a very
rough guide.
I had a guy write me that he is feeding cat food and that it has a good
protein content. I'm waiting for the long-term results.
Maybe I'll try it though. After all, it has a superior protein content and
a million cats cannot be wrong. (So goes the logic).

What about cats?

Because bees will eat anything if you add enough sugar. Sorta like kids.
I don't know about cats.
