People seem to be freaking out about vegan thing.
I am pretty sure the artist is referring to the owner literally going out and buying either wet food with meat chunks or some other meal with meat directly in it, as opposed to dry food with no meat bits.
Kibble is still made with meat in it it’s just been pressed and dehydrated.
It’s a reference to some stupid ass vegans that think obligate carnivores can survive on a plant based diet.
I’m aware healthy dry food contains meat. It’s fundamentally necessary for cats. I could understand vegans not wanting raw or preserved meat in their house, and I think having dry food would be an easy compromise for most vegans, but the ones who are very loving of their pet companions would keep wet food and meat treats for their cats despite it.
Quite frankly if a vegan is so bad at research that they don’t know cats need meat, I doubt they’d realize that dry food contains meat, and vice versa.
I think you are assuming something worse to be needlessly angry. I think you have an implicit bias that most vegans are idiots and that’s lead you to your assumption.
There’s a reason I said some vegans and not all.
I don’t really care what people choose to eat. If you’re vegan good for you, same with vegetarian or whatever diet you prefer.
I’ve just seen stories about vegans starving animals of proper nutrients trying to prove animals can survive on plant based diets and it’s been a joke for a long time.
I am doubtful the author is going to drop something macabre like that, as a passing statement, in a comic about a robot wondering if he’s loved.
I mean they’re already referencing that loving something means giving it what it needs to flourish despite personal beliefs.
That’s kinda the same reference just with a positive spin attempting to informative
No, robot, you’re loved. We scoop all the poops you make. We feed you all the food you need…
And you haven’t chosen a name yet, but I’m happy to start calling you a nickname based off “tin” since you are made of metal.
- Tin man
- Rin-tin-tin
- Tin-o-beans
- Tintin
I can also call you Siri
No such thing as a vegan cat. No such thing as a vegan cat. No such thing as a vegan cat.
The comic said the cat was fed meat though
Vegans that are Vegan for the animals probably wouldn’t feed a cat other animals, it makes no sense. There is Vegan cat food that works just fine.
cats are carnivores. no diet will ever change that. feed your cats meat.
If you knew the history of cat food you would know that even meat made cats sick without added synthetic taurine.
They have since added taurine to all cat foods.
Vegan cat food is perfectly healthy for cats.
You’re willing to toy with making a cat blind AND spread information. Fuck off forever.
Food is just chemicals and it turns out it doesn’t actually matter if the chemicals have a soul attached to them or not. Personally don’t think vegans should own pets at all but the whole “they carnivores tho” is rly dumb

Vegans wouldn’t “Own” someone else. Plenty of vegans rescue other animals and take care of them as wards.
I personally don’t use the word pet when referring to non-human animals in someone’s care.
There is not vegan cat food that works just fine, and you’re a fucking asshole if you force an obligate carnivore to become a vegan because of your personal human beliefs.
I’m the asshole for not paying for animals to die?
Makes sense when you actually think about it for more than one second.
/S just incase.
Don’t adopt a carnivore if you’re not willing to meet their biological needs. It’s not a complex solution.
Except I would be meeting their biological needs. Y’all really don’t like understanding science do you?
Cats eat no plant matter naturally. Absolutely none. If you have studies somehow proving that they can live by eating only things that they naturally never eat, feel free to educate me. But as far as I’m aware, attempting to put cats on a vegan diet is animal abuse.
Abuser.
The irony.
Oh yeah? By taking care of my cat and supplying him with food that his body needs I’m an abuser? Because I buy meat based food from a company that buys their meat from a processor that buys their meat from a slaughterhouse that may abuse their animals? I don’t think that’s ironic, I think that’s a stretch.
Some vegans are such clueless pricks.
“Slaughterhouse that may abuse their animals” Slaughterhouse… Slaughter… House…
And I’m the clueless one…
I’m. Not. Slaughtering. Anything. You want to change the system, be my guest. But it’s a matter of biology, not ethics.
Cats are fucking predators and that’s final. People like you feed newborn babies oat milk and then are shocked when it dies. Indeed, clueless. Give vegans a bad name.
“I pay someone to slaughter someone” = “hurr durr I’m not slaughtering anyone the person I paid to slaughter someone is!”
Yeah pretty much hurr durr
All meat eaters are purposefully keeping themselves clueless.
Vegans for the animals that own an animal and deny it the choice of food are hypocritical.
Sentient beings aren’t food!
Vegan cat food is not just vegetables for the uninformed. It is made to have all the necessary components that a car needs in its diet, mostly it is just missing the death of an animal part.
like motor oil?
And gasoline you fucking idiot can’t you READ
maybe try learn to write first?
Imagine coming into a thread about a comic and being this far off topic. Big L dude.
