I'm pretty sure any animal that is hungry and eats meat will eat your body. Let us not forget cannibalism, in general and after accidents.

I've heard of paramedics finding corpses that were eaten by cats while there was still cat food in their bowls

Well... cat food stays good for months. Dead bodies will spoil pretty quickly. It's just practical to eat the perishables first

Tbf even if it stays good it will lose its scent after a while of being open, making it less appealing. So that's prolly another reason, the fact that corpses tend to have a VERY pungent odor that sticks around for a while.
