Have Questions?
We Answer Them

Which cat foods contain palatants?

Cat foods that usually contain palatants are mainly dry kibble, treats and snacks, and special or therapeutic diets with less attractive ingredients, and to a lesser extent, some wet foods to enhance aroma. These flavors are used to improve palatability, as cats can be especially selective with the smell and taste of their food.

What flavors do cats like most?

Cats love animal-based flavors, especially fish aromas like tuna and salmon, and meat like chicken, turkey, and beef. They also enjoy strong flavors such as liver and offal. Unlike dogs, they cannot perceive sweet tastes, so fruits or sugary foods do not appeal to them.

How do cats distinguish flavors and aromas?

Cats distinguish flavors mainly through their taste buds, although they have far fewer than humans and cannot taste sweetness. Therefore, their sense of taste is more oriented toward meat and protein-rich foods. In contrast, their sense of smell is highly developed and plays a key role: often the aroma of the food determines whether they accept it, even before tasting it.

Is flavored food bad for cats?

No, it is not bad; in fact, it is beneficial. Cat palatants promote more regular and healthy feeding patterns by associating feeding times with specific aromas and flavors. Feline palatants are extensively tested, certified, and regulated: Regulation (EU) 2025/630. Pet palatants are produced under strict safety standards and carry European and global feed certifications, ensuring quality and safety for cats.
