Our bodies, and our pets' bodies, break down just about everything, and that includes fat. Fat can be broken down, and so the fat that your cat ingests needs to be the kind that can break down easily, so as to preserve the health of your cat. For cats, pork fat is not that kind of fat. Pork fat doesn't break down into tiny particles, like other fats, and the globs of fat can block a cat's blood vessels. This category of pork fat also extends to fat from bacon. (Bacon is especially bad because it contains sodium nitrate, a preservative considered hazardous to cats.
