(Liz) wrote in message .com... (GAUBSTER2) wrote in message Why do millions of cats thrive on dry commercial diets? They thrive until they get sick... Let´s see... FLUTD, diabetes, IBD.. Which affects what - maybe 5% of cats at some point in thier lifetimes? So what everyone should do is abandon what works quite well for 95% of cats and jump on the totally unproven BARFers bandwagon. Something the vast majority of veterinarians and all Board Certified Veterinary Nutritionists do not agree with. Heck yeh, that makes perfect sense, sign me up. Interesting, I didn't see anything in Liz's post about a raw diet. In fact, she was simply commenting on "dry" commercial diets. But of course, being a sales rep for Hill's Science Diet, I think you just see red if anyone doesn't agree with you. As to the 5% you quoted, do you have anything to back that up? ________ See my cats: http://community.webshots.com/album/56955940rWhxAe Raw Diet Info: http://www.holisticat.com/drjletter.html http://www.geocities.com/rawfeeders/ForCatsOnly.html Declawing Info: http://www.wholecat.com/articles/claws.htm |

All three of those diseases affects only 5% of all cats? I find that very hard to believe. I've noticed him posting similar statistics WRT allergies (food allergies in particular) and it seems to me these are all things that are very common these days (according to my experience with multiple vets in the last couple of years and the number of problems just on Usenet and Yahoo groups.) |

That's why I questioned it. It just doesn't seem right, does it? I know myself I've seen many, many posts about cats with these diseases. BTW, what does WRT mean?

Just think about all of those out there who never post to these forums? Or all those who don't try to get medical treatment for various reasons and have the cat PTS? I know many people who wouldn't "bother" with extensive medical treatment for a cat. Some are probably never even diagnosed. BTW, what does WRT mean? with regards to. |
