Unlike us, both cats and dogs can point to their teeth in the "these canines are meant for meat" argument and win. Spay and neuter- for 1,000,000 reasons, pigs are the pet of the future.

If it's possible to successfully keep a pet in good health on a vegan diet, then I think it's better, but I don't think I can (money & unsuccessful attempts). My obligation is to my pets' health, as carnivorous animals. I'm really conflicted about it, but that seems to be the lesser evil I'm unfortunately obliged to choose.

It's a fact that cats are obligate carnivores and do best on raw or cooked meat diets, preferably from the most ethical, organic, etc sources available. No cat should be fed dry kibble, whether it be vegan or nonvegan. I would feed other companion animals similar diets, based on their needs.

My Cats were sucessfully 100% vegan at first untill they developed a severe ! allergy against Wheat Gluten/Wheat Grain. The Symptoms were Hair Loss on the Belly and open, wet Wounds that would get worse and worse and would not stop, nothing helped and they were getting sad, appathic etc. We noticed it got worse when we fed them the Wheat Glute based vegan WET FOOD but better when they ate the only corn based dry vegan AMI Cat Food. But it would not heal. We gave them canned Wet Food that has 49% Trout or Salmon which is a very hight content and is "sustainably caught" Salmon and Organic Trout from European Sweet Waters. The Brands Name is YARRAH. Allmost within a Week their Healtha and Behaviour improooved immensly. The Wounds healed, the Hair grew back and they are vibrant, happy and healthy like before and more. We tried Evolution and other wet Vegan Alternatived, none of which they wanted. So we would rather them be 50 % vegan only and healthy then to be 100% vegan and sick and suffering. We are aware that sustainably caught fish is causing the least suffering on a overall scale, which is why we chose that option over cow or chicken, not bc we love fish less :( We did not save the Cats to have them suffer and be sick, so we must do what is necessary to ensure their happyness and health, in this case feed them Fish. We are open to Alternatives, but we are also aware that even a vegan lifestyle causes death and sufffering depending on how some vegans live more or less simple, We live very simple, do not even own a car, so we thing that Critisism from Vegan regarding our Fishfeeding is very rude and out of place.

I saw the benefits for my dogs and cats when I stopped buying pet food and began feeding them a strict carnivorous diet. I believe both cats and dogs are obligate carnivores and since I don't have to space to let them hunt their own food freely, I think it is cruel to own carnivorous pets.

My pets had severe health conditions; while I realize a vegan diet may not apply to all - putting mine on a vdog diet cured their issues. I agree it may not be for everyone, cats included -- but if I wouldn't eat it, I don't think (any) animals should be forced to, regardless if they are meant to or not. Food is not what is should be today; animals bred for food aren't food, but GMO'd clones -- ultimately our pets suffer (as we do) because of this, not including the trauma/inhumane aspect!

When our two cats were still alive, I tried switching them to vegan food, but they were old enough that I debated whether that was really the most-good-least-harm thing to do. (They kept rejecting the food...maybe I should have persevered, but I didn't have the support of my family, either.) I love cats, but am conflicted enough about the dilemma of whether to attempt a vegan diet with them that I've declined to take in others. (I know an advocate who fears she harmed her cat friend with a vegan diet.) If the question were studied, so we had some evidence (i.e. such-and-such percent of cats on a vegan diet had no health issues for x years) then people would have more basis for their own decisions.

My dog is only 3lbs. And I had a dog ( same breed) that lived to be 18 on a meat diet,, my thoughts are,if that dog could live that long on meat,I can not risk giving my 3 Lb dog a non meat diet. I can't chance an oz of weight loss with a dog so tiny,and she thrives on all meat diet. No grain,due to Alergies, so must be 100% meat & added fruit. I hate the smell, hate making it for her,however her health is my num 1 priority. ( she's our baby) I will not chance her health which is why I refuse to buy cheap chemical filled,dry bagged,or canned food. meat & fruit only. After having first furry baby live 18 years on diet,I can't change. I feel they were bred eating an all meat diet. I've researched,and Just my thoughts. Besides,my non vegan hubby would never let me put dog on vegan diet :)

I rescued/fed/sterilised/fostered stray cats for 15 years, prior to becoming vegan, but will not have "pets" now, because I believe it is just another form of exploitation ... if a vegan decides to adopt an animal, he/she should make sure that it can survive on a diet that's consistent with his/her moral values (ie: vegan - no cats!)

Dogs can be fed vegan or vegetarian, but cats ARE obligate carnivores. This means they are unable to process plant based foods. Cats also obtain energy from saturated fats (animal fats) and need 30% fats in their diet to produce their energy needs. There is no belief to it, the fact is cats can only process a meat based diet.

I have three cats that I keep on a wet + dry diet. This is an interesting question, as I was recently talking with another vegan friend about this topic and we concluded this- that possessing any type of companion animal keeps you buying pet food, in turn keeping you a part of animal cruelty and slaughter, and that the only way to escape this conundrum is to never own a companion animal, thus never purchasing pet food and perpetuating that cycle of cruelty. A conundrum indeed because I love my cats!

I do not feed my canine companions vegan either. I realize that dogs can survive on a vegan diet but I do not feel that they will necessarily thrive on one. My stance on this issue comes from being educated and holding a degree as a certified veterinary technician. This subject is a struggle for me as I feel like a hypocrite for supporting the food animal industry to feed my companion animals, but cannot bring myself to force them to be vegan becuase scientifically speaking, it is not natural. It is my hopes that cultured meat will prove to be both affordable and safe, and will hit the pet food market in the near future.

Option 1 describes what I have done, and optiopm 2 describes some cats but not all cats. For cats who can't be vegan, they can be fed a non-vegan diet if the food is commercial. In other words, killing individual animals so that a cat can live is wrong, but buying a can of cat food is ok if there is no direct link between the purchase and the death of an animal.

I believe cats and dogs can and should be fed a vegan diet, with special precautions for cats to avoid urinary issues and anything else that could come up. I have tried different vegan foods for my cats and they eat a few bites and then act like there are rocks, not food, in their dishes. So I feed them a diet including animal products so as not to starve them. Perhaps if they had started as kittens in vegan food, they would be more amenable to it.

I fed my cats a vegan diet of biscuits but then they had to go on a wet diet, so they aren't vegan anymore and I can't afford the vegan wet cat food or the constant tests to make sure they are healthy.

I have fed my cats non-vegan food over the years, but not because I thought vegan food for cats is wrong.

that said, I don't feel feel great about buying cat food. However, my cat is almost 20 years old so experimenting with her diet at this point would not be wise.

Not sure if it's ok to feed a cat a vegan diet. I think that it might be better for them, because they get a lot of illness with their meat catfood diet, anyway. I have heard people fed their cats vegan and it worked good. I have also heard that it can cause crystals..but so can the other..so who knows.

I think it is hypocritical to call yourself vegan and then purchase animal products for an animal to eat.

I've heard dogs can thrive on a vegan diet, but I haven't tried it. I have the fear (possibly irrational) that my dog will get sick as a result of me being a "crazy vegan".

I have the intention of trialling feeding my cat a vegan diet because there is no way to permit them to hunt in the way in which they would do naturally; I believe that they are obligate carnivores.

I am not sure about the answer but I think if felines are design by natureto be carnibores and cows to be herbivores then I wont change their diets. we would be part of their GM and I want to respect nature.

I have in the past fed my felines vegan food, but I always have elderly and/or sickly cats for whom eating enough is a real concern. They generally will not eat enough of it to be healthy.

This are the real principles of a truthful Vegan person. Anyone breaking one of this rules only one, is not a Vegan person nor a Veganism practitioner but a liar and hypocrite.

1) Animals are not ours to displace them {stealing their habitats}.
2) Animals are not ours to chase them {it’s unjust harassment}.
3) Animals are not ours to hunt them {it’s evil desire to kill}.
4) Animals are not ours to trap them {it’s pain and suffering}.
5) Animals are not ours to cage them {it’s the cruelty of zoos}.
6) Animals are not ours to train them {in sports/entertainment}.
7) Animals are not ours to exploit them {at work nor slavery}.

1) Animals are not ours to laugh at them {in amusement parks}.
2) Animals are not ours to bet on them {it’s human greed}.
3) Animals are not ours to experiment on them {it’s sorcery}.
4) Animals are not ours to skin them alive {it’s an abomination}.
5) Animals are not ours to wear them {it’s envy and vanity}.
6) Animals are not ours to kill them {thou shalt not {is idolatry}.
7) Animals are not ours to eat them {desire to taste death/flesh}.

1) Animals are not ours to castrate {it’s against God's will and purpose}.
2) Animals are not ours to breed {it’s against nature’s circle of life}.
3) Animals are not ours to name/buy/sell/borrow/give away nor steal it.
4) Animals are God’s own image and likeness {soul and body}.
5) Animals are God's created man, male and female {mankind}.
6) Animals are God’s Blessed Living Creatures {the real Saints}.
7) Animals are God’s blessed children {Son of God/Son of Man}.
