Inconsistent behavior with cat_food and wolf_food item tags

There's various inconsistencies in how the ``cat_food`` and ``wolf_food`` tags behave with cats and wolves respectively. Both cats and wolves can be healed with their respective foods, which I assume was the intention of these tags, but also:

  • Wolves cannot be tamed with any ``wolf_food`` (only bones), but cats can be tamed with any ``cat_food``.
  • Despite cats being tamed with any ``cat_food``, it seems like they cannot be tempted by it (they are only tempted by raw fish). Edit: I was wrong, they are tempted by any ``cat_food``. Although this adds to the inconsistency of cats being tamed with cat_food but wolves not by wolf_food.

The expected behavior would be for both tags to behave in the same way on their respective animals.

I attach a simple datapack where I put carrots in both tags in order to test this and a video showing the behavior.
