Vegetarians: What do you feed your Cats and Dogs?!


Question: Vegetarians: What do you feed your Cats and Dogs!?
Answers:
read vegetarian times, the article stated that dogs can survive on the veggie or even a vegan diet!. Cats on the other hand can not!. Dogs will be "a bit weaker" and maybe not as "hyper" but will live a normal life!. Meat has a special protein within that cats have to have in order to survive, not even a meat substitute can provide that!.

Where I live there aren't any vegetarian dog foods so I feed him Eukanuba or Royal Canin!. If there were a vegetarian alternative, I would gradually make him switch!. I've read that dogs adjust easily and don't have any problems, whereas cats need meat and they may be eager to hunt (birds, for instance) if they don't find all their nutrients in the food!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Good question!.
I don't know whether it is true or not that cats and dogs can not survive with out meat!. If they can I would put them on a totally vegetarian diet - if they can't i suppose the best solution would be to source the meat you feed them from a farmer who raises and also slaughters their animals in as natural and pain free way as is possible!. Either that or if you really don't want to contribute to the intentional slaughter of an animal, and it sounds gross, you could collect road kill or speak to farmers about obtaining animals from farms which have died from natural causes!.

I don't have a pet right now but when at my Dads I give our family dog all my left over vegies and fake-meat and she loves it!Www@FoodAQ@Com
