I would skip the cat food seriously, its a notorious cause of kidney failiure and liver and heart desiase in reptiles, even monitors can die from it. You dont want to take chances with either of thouse, the terapy on thouse in reptiles is just in the beggining and often futile. Allways remenbar that reptiles have less evolved kidneys then mamals wich doesant buggs them because of their naturaly low caloric diet, but when confronted with too much protein it can fail with letal consequeses. Dont use it, its not worth the risk;)
I 100% agree..yeah I feed him for about 2 weeks then switched to snails and crawfish...I feed him crabs..what u think about that???saltwater not fresh like crawfish and snails...he loves them..thanks bro for info about the cat food...;)
 
There is nothing wrong in feeding it crabs;) But since they are saltwater ones I would keep it to a minimum ands use the snails and crayfish as staples. It would be good that you tryed to find a paper on the wild feeding habits of this lizard, that would help you know the range of foods that he will take
