    Re: Vegetarianism and pets?

    Vannakkam: my son the vegan is visiting us, and I asked about his cat, named Margaret Scratcher, a kind of cool name. I met her once. She has been vegan for about 5 years now, and is in perfectly fine health. I guess you can buy good vegan cat food, which I didn't know until today. http://www.vegancats.com/

    Namaste DK,

    I also see no problem with feeding pets non-vegetarian food if that's what their bodies are designed to eat in order to survive. I have birds and fish. The birds are vegetarians, but the fish (cichlids) are fed food with animal products from mainly shrimp and other fish.

    Perhaps the only thing I would object to would be feeding a pet food that contains meat from Gomata, the holy Mother Cow. Besides, if a small cat were out in the wild, it wouldn't exactly be hunting cows ..Although to my knowledge most cat foods contain cow meat. The link EMji posted is intriguing.
