It is okay for dogs to eat cat food but cats should not eat dog food. Cat need triptaphan (may have spelled wrong) to be healthy. Generally cat food is higher in protein than dog food. Dogs love meat and protein = meat so cat food smells and tastes good to them. Cozy is always getting into the cat food and other than bad breath have never suffered any ill effects such as diahrrea or vomiting. Vet said it is okay if dog eats in cat food but don't encourage it.
