Cats have a limited amount of taste buds and rely heavily on smell when deciding what to eat.2
Testing took this into account and determined that vanilla and yeast were the combo cats wanted.6
Vanilla provides an attractive aroma that cats find appealing, yeast helps with palatability providing a savory flavor.
