"We have a responsibility to imitate the natural food chain of the animals — in terms of both animal welfare and professional integrity," Aalborg Zoo says.
Dude, people like you are everywhere. “My dogs a vegetarian”, “my cats a vagan”, “my cockapoo is a 2 spirted trans Afghan wolf hound”. Its always something, rather than just letting the pet be a pet. We hate it when asshole bullies, get bully dogs that they then train to be asshole just like them. But when it comes to other people pushing their nonsense onto pets, all of sudden we have to respect it.
Cats are carnivores. Thats the end of the discussion. Thats what they are. Just because they can survive on something, doesnt mean its what they should be eating. Some humans say they are vegan, and “survive”. They look fucking ill as fuck, but they are surviving. And without science, in the form of special meals and supplements, they would be fucking dead. Wanna know why? Cos human beings arent vegan. We can survive without meat, but its not how our diet is supposed to go.
All that said, I too hate the farming industry and how it keeps and treats animals. But we need more to be done on that front, than going out to eat at a restaurant just to moan at some minimum wage waiter about how meat, and its disgusting that theres no vegan options.
I’m not a vegan; I’m not a vegetarian. I’m far too broke and dependent on other people to be so picky as to choose what I get to eat. My dogs are also not on a vegetarian diet, neither is the cat.
I am not making an argument for or against veganism, and especially not for or against a vegan diet for pets. I was explaining what the difference was between a carnivore and an obligate carnivore is. I’m also not the originator of this thread, in case you missed that, too.
Normally I’d try to be nicer and more respectful, so as not to further inflame a situation, but honestly, the transphobic dig at “people like me” screams of someone who isn’t worth my time or respect. Be better. You can get your point across without needing to disrespect trans people and indigenous people. 'sfucked up
“People like you” People pushing their own shit on to pets.
But please, tell me more about how I am transphobic for calling out shitty owners who insist their dogs are LGBT just to get attention? I am all fucking ears.

How about reread what I wrote?
