Tip 6 – Vegetarian cats – not a good idea

Although we humans may choose a vegetarian diet and can live quite comfortably, a cat cannot.

No matter how opposed we may be to the idea of eating meat we should not pass this ideology on to our cats.

Unlike humans who are omnivores (meat and vegetable eaters) cats are natural carnivores (meat eaters). In fact cats are called obligate carnivores because they NEED to eat meat.

In order to stay healthy they need the nutrition that can best be found in animal tissues, or cat foods made with meat.
