Vegan cat food? What the frak, poor cats.
its sickening how they pretend to care about animals and nature by being vegan yet its just egotripping and blatant animal abuse. If they actually care about animals they should be the first ones denouncing vegan cat food.
It's already bad enough that a lot of dry cat food in the market has grain (and the high cost of grainless alternatives) to even considering giving vegan food to a cat pffff.
Dry food is the worst between their diabetes risk and CKD risk.
Really? I give my cats dry food, but there's no grain in it, all meat. Expensive, but worth it!
That reduces diabetes risk, but not CKD risk.
Cats evolved from desert dwellers and often don't like drinking water, they rarely do so in nature and get most of their liquids from their food. If a cat only eats dry food and doesn't drink enough kidney disease is just an inevitability. Of our 3 cats only one of them drinks water regularly.
Interesting. Well, I can confirm that my cats drink water, and a lot of it! One is nearly 13, the other 4, and they both drink multiple times per day.
