Cats and many other carnivore species have lost their ability to taste sugar.Evolution has independently led to the loss of this taste in many different species like the sea lion, fur seal, Asian otter, spotted hyena etc. In these animals the 'taste receptor gene' is damaged.
The research proves that what animals like to eat is dependent to a significant degree on their basic taste receptor biology.
As I bite into my 'Dark fantasy choco filled cookie' and lick the molten chocolate center with relish, I thank God that MY taste receptor genes are intact.....
