    Corn is well, an ingredient looked down upon when its found in commercial pet foods. Corn is not digestable, and just comes right back out the other end.

    However its not BAD and won't HARM them at all, it just will make them poo more. And was there butter and salt on the corn? Because the butter could give her diarrhea

    Yet even the Premium Cat Foods have a bit of Ground Corn Meal in them,so it cant be all that bad for them.

    I think the problem is seeing the corn in it's 'still natural state' when sifting thru the litter box...

    But brown and yellow ARE complimentary colors...aren't they?

    I never said it was BAD, its just not the best ingredient and something you want to stay away from in foods because it holds no nutritional value and is non-digestable for dogs anyway. Not to mention it is the number one allergen in food.

    Some foods "claiming" to be premium will have corn meal in them, yes, but REAL "premium" foods do not

    I don't think it will be a problem, but if you saw her do it and were concerned, why did you let her eat the whole bowl?

    Corn will be fine i think. It's not digestable anyway as it's mostly fibre. I know that there are some veggies that make cats sick, but i don't think corn's one of them.
