- For some, there is no limit to what they will do to keep their dogs and cats disease-free, whether that means acupuncture, special herbs or homemade meals. ...
- Those of us who depend upon commercial companies to provide nutritionally sound and quality pet food have learned to bypass any brand that uses ethoxyquin as a preservative. "Many problems of nervousness or hypersensitivity are caused by preservatives in food -- especially ethoxyquin," says Anitra Frazier, author of the best-selling book, "The New Natural Cat. ...
- But here's a news flash: Even if the label doesn't list ethoxyquin (a carcinogen used, among other things, as a rubber preservative), it could still very well be in that food. ... If the food you buy already has ethoxyquin in the fat, it doesn't have to be listed on the label, because the food manufacturer didn't actually put it in. ...
- As a guide, Anitra recommends her three "clean" brands: Pet Guard, Nature's Recipe and Wysong, but she says a homemade diet is best of all. ...
- Ethoxyquin has been the most debated preservative used in dog food. ... Ethoxyquin was originally approved by the FDA as a grain preservative intended for animals raised to be killed for food, and it was to be used no longer than 2 years. ...

- Well, as many people have said before me, if you fed a kid nothing but hot dogs and Snickers, then suddenly threw a pile of steamed broccoli on his plate, do you think he will be receptive?

- I have cat fur everywhere. ... Their food is the basis for their health. ...
- Buy a 1/4 of ground meat and add an 1/8 of a teaspoon mixed well into his food. ...

Then slowly increase the percentage of raw until the cat is eating only raw. ... It's not going to kill a healthy cat who is not overweight if it doesn't get a meal for a day or two or three. ...
- Yes it's heartrending to have a piteously meowing cat in front of you. It's even more heartrending when a cat comes down with a disorder that you feel you might have prevented if you had been a little more strict back then. ... (Though we're hoping he comes up with a cat book soon. ... Oh, I have a cat who likes cantaloupe, and they love stir-fried broccoli, but when you're preparing a cat meal, it's always safer to assume otherwise. ...
- But, we cannot throw a cat a chicken wing and expect that to make a complete meal. ... It may take them a few weeks to get used to *those*, too, but at least they should take to them faster than when they were raw food virgins. ... Of course there are those cats who are on the "over my dead body" side or who really cannot physically handle raw meat, just as there are cats on the other end of the bell curve who will wolf down anything resembling food, but I think most cats, like most things, are somewhere in the middle. ...

- From pharaohs to philosophers to paupers, the companionship of and affection for cats has been a result of the cats unique ability to make us humans gaze in awe and admiration.
- Eons of special environmental circumstances have forced the cat to evolve some interesting and individualized biochemical activities. Lets take a peek at how unique the cat is inside, in that mysterious universe of liver and kidneys and glands and fluids where a million chemical reactions are going about their biological business in silent obscurity. And to make our little peek at the inner workings of the cat more interesting, lets contrast a few of the cats biological activities to those of our next most favorite companion the dog.
- You never see a cat happily wag its tail; a dogs reflexes are quick, a cats reflexes are incredible; dogs are doers, cats are watchers. ... Now lets explore some of the unseen microscopic world of the cat the invisible world of metabolism and chemistry that is just as real as those traits we can see with our eyes.
- The cat is considered by scientists to be a strict carnivore and the dog is considered to be an omnivore. Both species are in the Class Mammalia and the Order Carnivora, but heres the difference: The cat cannot sustain its life unless it consumes meat in some form. ... Just because by definition they are omnivores (can digest and utilize plant and animal food sources) does not mean that plant material alone makes a good source of nutrition for the dog. ... And grain-based cat foods are even worse!.
- There are numerous chemical substances that are required for a cat to remain alive. ... Like other living plants and animals, the cat can manufacture most of its own required substances within its own bodys chemical factory. ...
- That is, they need to prey on other living creatures that do make the essential chemicals that cats dont! Out of necessity, the cat has evolved ways to hunt down, capture and eat this prey in order to "borrow" the prey's nutrients.
- Felinines role in the overall function of the chemical factory is unknown, but like most factories whose wastes generate offensive odors, any Felinine present in the male cats urine alerts the neighbors that the factory is up and runnin!.

- • Commercial pet foods are convenient, but not best for every dog or cat.
- • Fresh food, especially lean meat and veggies, can provide nutrition pets can't get from commercial processed foods .
- • Homemade diets are great if you follow recipes carefully, give all recommended supplements and give your pet a lot of variety .
- There is no doubt that the pet food industry has revolutionized care and feeding of our companion animals. ...
- Let me tell you a couple of horror stories about pet foods to suggest to you what your dog or cat may be eating. ... Other ingredients such as grain products may be clean, but the quality is not what we would eat—soy grits, corn gluten, and wheat middlings, for instance, are not seen in human food labels nearly as often as on pet food labels. One 1985 scientific paper examined pentobarbital levels (an anesthetic agent used in euthanasia solutions) in pet food derived from dogs and cats that had been euthanized at shelters. This practice was still relatively common in the year 2000! A dog or cat on one of the very cheapest diets may be eating pet food that contains the remains of other pet dogs and cats, and the pentobarbital levels may be significant. ... The American Journal of Cardiology has warned that children allergic to penicillin could die from accidentally eating pet food!.
- The moral to this horror story is this: some pet food manufacturers have determined (supported by scientists, nutritionists and government representatives) that meat rejected for humans is fine for cats and dogs. ...
- Take a look at how our pets' diets are usually chosen—the food that is the cheapest, and one that the dog or cat eats most readily, is the one we go back to most often. If children were fed similarly, they would be eating junk food every day (children and pets love sugar, salt, and addictive artificial flavors). ...
- " This is the only guideline set in stone for pet food manufacturers. ...
- A story came out years ago from one of the premium food companies that points out how little that rule matters. ... A diet that contains minimum levels of protein, fat, fiber, and carbohydrates may allow a pet to survive, but most of us want our dog or cat to be in optimum health. ...

- a) if the food has the name of a meat in it, like Tuna Cat Food, that meat has to comprise 95% of the product, not counting the water (counting the water, 70% of the product). Lamb & Rice Cat Food means that both lamb and rice together constitute the 95%. ...
- b) if the food has the word "dinner," "formula," "entree," "platter," "nuggets," "menu," "supper," or suchlike in it, then, get this, the named ingredient only has to constitute 25% of the product. ...
- That's not much cheese! Cat Food with Tuna is thus VERY different from Tuna Cat Food (see above). ...
- f) artificial flavors are rarely added to pet food, other than phony bacon flavors for dogs. ...
- "Meat meal" doesn't have to contain any meat at all; it is rendered from mammal tissues, not including "blood, hair, horn, hide trimmings, manure this is now a food apparently , stomach, and rumen contents. ...
- i) ethoxyquin: They've received reports that ethoxyquin in dog food was causing allergic reactions, skin problems, major organ failure, behavior problems, and cancer. Since they have no scientific proof except that ethoxyquin does cause a build-up of blood-related pigment in the liver, they have asked dog food manufacturers to voluntarily lower the amount of ethoxyquin used until they conduct more tests. ...
- k) "100% balanced and nutritious" does not mean that the product has actually been tested on any animals as a food. ...
- l) there are no rules governing what makes "senior" different from ordinary food, and anyone can call their feed "premium," "gourmet," "natural," etc. , no matter what the source of the food is .
