Palatant formulations for treats must take into consideration the fact
that most treats are hand-fed by pet owners.

represent the minimum of individual preferences. Testing
considers consumption data including intake ratio and consumption kinetics and acceptability.

The human element
Because there's no normalization around palatability measurement, it becomes important to consider the animal's
resulting behavior around the eating occasion. Measures of
behavior can quantify pets' responses to foods that are meaningful beyond what is consumed by describing how the dog
or cat eats relative to what was eaten.
Through monitoring of external conditions, questions
arise. Do the behaviors shown by the animal while eating
indicate interest? Can the animal eat without being disturbed? Does the animal concentrate on the food while eating? Does the animal make repeat visits to the bowl? Is the
cat demanding after an eating occasion?
"Cats require more finesse and a greater degree of balance
in pet food and palatant formulation," Castillo says. "This
includes maintaining calcium-phosphorus balance when
using salts as a key ingredient and considering whether or
not ingredients in the diet could contribute to the formation
of urinary crystals."
Many of the most important behavioral clues are perceived by owners. Meowing could signal the cat is unhappy
