Wanna kill your cat or dog?

Just feed it cat or dog food.

So far, I am the lone vote for making my own cat food.

I can not stress enough how bad processed animal food is for your cat or dog, especially the dry stuff. I know I used to feed my cat Eukanuba Diet cat food. She never lost an ounce. By fluke, I had her blood tested revealing that she had kidney problems. Long story short, I took her to see a natural vet (a certified vet, but one who doesn't believe in selling you "vet pet food" or narcs) after her regular vet told me she'd be dead in a year, but that I had to give her two different kinds of narcs and some vet sold KD diet cat food (KD = Kidney disease)

She (the natural vet) told me that ALL pet food, regardless of how they dress up the bag, is poisonous for our four footed friends. It's all crap, made from crap, made to be convienient for humans. Imagine food that doesn't rot - how's that possible?

Anyway, she had a convincing arguement - that vets make more money selling food and narcs than they do being vets. Hardly unbiased. We use pet foods to get rid of the bottom of the barrel rotting food, mix it with anything to fill the animal up and package it to be convienient to the human owners.

My cat was supposed to be dead a year ago. I have been making her chicken and veggies, or fish and veggies for 2 years now and she has lost weight (holding at 9 pounds) and is asleep right now in the other room.

The multi billion dollar pet food industry would like you to believe that pets somehow require some secret food that only they can make. Nothng could be a bigger pile of steaming horseshit. Well, your animal would probably be better off eating fresh horseshit than it would be eating anything by IAMS or Eukanuba (Proctor and Gamble and Colgate Palmolive)

Believe me, I am not a birkenstock wearing tree hugging hippie, but I do work in the corporate world and I know how they operate. If they could sell us cotton dipped in chocolate and get us to eat it for lunch, they would. Animals can't voice their concerns. So just ask yourself - Would you want to eat what you are feeding your cat or dog?

If the answser is no, then your cat or dog probably feels the same way. How'd you like to eat cheerios every day, three times a day, for the rest of your life?
