MODERATORS
People are so quick to call it animal cruelty. Did any of you ask a vet if it was harmful to the animal? I didnt coz I dont even have a cat but it seems some vegans did and were reassured that it is alright. I think that shows they care about their pet and want to ensure its health while possibly aligning it with their lifestyles, probably better than feeding them the cheapest crap they can find.
Im not saying its okay to just feed your pet veggies, but just because it doesnt seem 'natural' doesnt automatically mean it is bad. This is 'being gay is unnatural' all over again.
I have a friend who's a vet in a trendy community and has seen multiple instances of cats with health issues (some permanent) directly stemming from attempting a vegan diet so his blanket advise is "don't even try it"
Ironically the cheapest crap contains vegan stuff like wheat or rice. And cats ( at least my cat ) doesnt get so well with such things.
My cat is also allergic to grains, and I don't mind paying more for grain free food.
Cats , when left alone (as in feral), mostly eat meat naturally. There is documented behavior in animals that homosexuality occurs naturally in the wild. There is no correlation to your comparison.
You just said it, cats mostly eat meat naturally. Just like most couples contain 1 male and 1 female naturally. Just because one behaviour is natural does not mean all behaviour that deviates from that is unnatural.
