Some of your questions concerning obligate carnivores, and their gut action,

will be answered on the Holisticat.com site. This link will take you directly

to the raw diet information for cats which touches on answering your question:

 

http://www.holisticat.com/rawdiet.html

 

The opening of this page on the site reads:

 

" Cats are carnivores, plain and simple. They need meat to survive. Many cats

can subsist for quite some time on grocery store food, but more and more often

we see diseases such as cancer, hyperthyroidism, IBD, diabetes, and heart

disease, all of which can be linked to a history of poor nutrition. You may

believe that grocery store foods are formulated by nutritionists, and they're

supposed to be fully balanced and complete, right? Wrong. The best thing you can

do

for your cat is to feed her the way she was meant to be fed: meat! "
