And don't get me started on dog "treats"--those chicken-flavored wheat biscuits devoid of nutrition! Just give your dog what he REALLY wants as a treat: MEAT!

Cats are true carnivores, yes, however, they do eat grass for chlorophyl. You let your cat out and you will see them eating grass, sometimes they throw up as a result, but what they are after is the cholorphyl.
I feed my 2 cats mainly chicken, sometimes liver, sometimes tuna. Mixed with 20% veggies or so (green beans, yellow beans, brocoli, cauliflower, peas and carrots and parsley)
They have done very well by it and their weight is under control now.
