    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.

        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.

          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.

      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.
