Is Mercury a problem in cat food with tuna?
My cats love Nulo, a food that earned a good score on Cats.com reviews. I notice that tuna is the 4th ingredient so I understand that it may be a small amount. But is it really ok to have them eat this every day? What about mercury buildup in their little bodies? Has this been studied?

My cat won’t try any foods.
Hello! I have a cat that’s been a particular pain to feed. When I first got her, the previous owner had fed dry food with a specific flavor of Friskies wet food.
