A scientific method is a procedure performed in a systematic way to answer and explain a question.  In the given question, one wants to study the type of food preferred and eaten by a pet cat.

1. This could be tested by making the observation about the food preferred by the cat in normal conditions and asking question related to this.

2. A background study should be done based on which a prediction should be proposed in the form of a hypothesis which could be tested and verified through experiments by providing the preferred food sample to the cat.

3. This will help in estimating the results which could be analysed to conclude and explain the answer.
