Answer 3

Dogs are classified as omnivores.  Cats are carnivores.

This is from an article on www.thepetcenter.com:

Our feline friends are classified as true carnivores because they must consume meat in order to survive.  Go here to see some of the differences between feline and canine metabolism.  Canines are just slightly different from cats in their conversion of foods for life maintenance; dogs are classified as omnivores.  They can survive on a diet of either plant or animal origin if it is balanced and diverse.  But to thrive and not merely survive, dogs should have a source of animal protein - MEAT - in their diets.  There is a huge difference between survive and thrive!  Nature made the rules of biochemistry and nutrition and we mortals have no power (and no business, for that matter) to try to bend those rules.  For that reason there are truly no adequate vegetarian diets for cats.  For that reason dogs thrive on diets based on meat.
