Why do cats have to eat everything they find on the floor?

My cat will eat any little spec she finds on the floor. I have plenty of food out all the time for her. Are they just stupid? Does yours do this too?

    The cat's stomach is an endless vacuum that can relate to the endless existence of space. They need to fill up as much space as possible, or they will combust and become a black hole, swallowing everything at rapid speeds and crushing them.

    They DON'T. They're actually very PICKY eaters... Did you know it's a LOT easier to poison a Dog than it is a Cat ??! Dogs will usually vacuum up Everything in sight... While a Cat chooses what it Likes- & lets YOU throw away your money on what it Doesn't !!! :)

    YES. My cats do this all the time. I have one that does it more than the other two. I swear she will eat anything on the floor.

    She also likes gross things...like eating bugs and other cat's vomit.

    yes there are but they are not stupid. they are unaware of what they eat. they think it will harm them...so, the best thing to do is eat it!!!
