That is honestly an idiocy, anyone doing that is hurting their cat for no other reason than ideological. If you don’t want a pet that eat meat, maybe don’t get a carnivore ffs.
carnivore just means they can’t synthesise certain stuff and need to get it from eating other animals, but if there are ways to artificially synthesise or somehow otherwise get those elements, why would that be a problem then?
I agree. Not to mention the relational implications for dogmaticly enforcing veganism as a moral good. As if we are not seperated from nature enough we must now be sure to make food in a lab so our pets don’t commit the sin of being a living creature. It’s sheer dogma that reinforces our own alienation and forces it on other living things.
I asked my vet what she thought about cats being fed a vegan diet, and she said she didn’t have a problem with it because they do that for cats with allergies already. Although taurine is a legitimate issue.
