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.
