Question

Would cats rather starve themselves than eat the food they don't like?

Answer 1

Cats can be picky eaters and may refuse to eat food that they don't like. In some cases, cats may choose to go without food for a period of time rather than eat something that they don't enjoy. However, cats should not be allowed to go without food for too long, as this can be detrimental to their health.

Answer 2

Cats will starve themselves. It doesn't take very long, either to have illness from not eating. Fat cats die of fatty liver disease from not eating enough over days to weeks all the time.
