(Wild speculation) what if it evolved as a mechanism to keep proto-cats near humans? It's clearly quite a successful trait for a species to become associated with humans, maybe cats evolved a taste for fish as they got closer to fishing humans?
Dogs developed new facial muscles and all sorts of other features as they evolved into a companion species. Maybe cats evolved a taste for food they could only get from us?
- deprecative 3y agoMy assumption as an ignorant person who happens to live with cats is this: tuna contains a lot of the good things cats evolved eating but in a different form. Humans have this same issue. Tuna became something cats like because they were already wired to like the nutrients in the tuna from other sources.
