Is it vegan? Is it vegetarian?
I heard that it contains taurine, so possible it can be given to vegan
cats as a supplement, don't you think?

TIA,
Jupiter

Yes, some brands are vegan. Here's some information

You need to be very, very careful if you try and feed your cat a vegan
diet. Don't just feed it nutritional yeast because 'you heard it
contains taurine.' That would be very irresponsible and can lead to
serious health problems for your cat. Learn more he

Very sound advice.

I look at it this way - if you can't stand to feel your pets meat, don't
own carnivors. There's plenty of herbivore pets out there whose lives
won't be endangered by you imposing your values on them.

Yup. Get a rabbit instead and then you can feed it "Lettuce with a Gladsome
Mind."
