Um, no, unless you think it's okay to cause suffering, illness, or death to animals!. If you want to harm your cat, you definitely shouldn't feed it what it needs in order to survive!.

If you think it's wrong to feed an obligate carnivore (that is, an animal that needs to eat meat and essentially only meat in order to survive) meat, please give your cat to someone who doesn't share your opinion!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

(spelled!.!.!."vegetarian") Felines (cats) are meat eaters in the wild!. Why torture your animal with your beliefs/values!. However, I think you can feed them a commercial product that blends proteins from animal and vegetable sources that are still healthy that might be a compromise!. Cats are pretty finicky so they eat more what they like versus what you want to give them!. My weird cat likes tomatoe sauce from left over spaghetti!. He also likes the juice from the tuna can but not the tuna!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

yes, you would be hurting your cat by not giving it it's natural food!. saying that, most commercial cat food is not really good for them either (too many carbohydrates etc!.) which causes the enormous number of cats with diabetes these days!. the weirdest thing must definitely be giving cats cow's milk, though, which a lot of people think is natural!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

no, your cat isn't a vegetarian!. Cats need nutrients from meat etc otherwise their diets wouldn't be complete!. They don't have the many dietary options that people do!. Both people and cats, dogs as well, are natural carnivores!. The difference is that people can subsitute the nutrients they would normally get from meats and to some degree from fish with other foods!. Cats cannot!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

That would be cruel to the tuna!. If you didn't buy tuna for your cat, there would be no market for tuna, and the senseless slaughter of tuna would not continue!.
Don't you believe in ANIMAL rights!? Or do you just believe in MAMMAL rights!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

No - your cat is a carnivore and this is what they're made to eat!

At the next checkup, check with your vet what they recommend for a healthy cat-diet, same as you would check with your doctor about your own nutrition!.

And yep, I'm vegetarian too!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

your bloody cat isn't a vegetarian if you are, and you don't have the right to control what animals eat even if you "own" them because their diet is instinctly meat!. if you do control their diet for your own pleasures then that is considered animal abuse!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No!. Meat is what they are designed to eat, they are carnivores!.I NEVER have to shoo cats away from the tomato's in my garden!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No it is not wrong!.!.your cat does not share your dietary needs or selected lifestyle!. It is abuse if you do not feed them what they need to be healthy & cats need animal flesh!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No, it would be cruel to not fee your cat the proper food! They are carnivores!. (And I'm a vegetarian myself)!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Cats are obligate carnivores - they cannot live on a diet that does not contain some kind of meat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No, unless your cat is a vegetarian, too!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

no, it's a good thing in my opinion, as cats are carnivores!. poor cat needs such a diet!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No!. It's only flavored!. Your cat is not you!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

no because your cat is a natural carnivore!.!. you cant control othersWww@FoodAQ@Com

Haha no of course not! your cat can and should still eat tuna, chicken, beef flavoured cat food! Www@FoodAQ@Com

no, just because you made a stupid decision in life dont force that stupid decision on your catWww@FoodAQ@Com
