... Archetype can be fed as a supplement as well, to provide a source of non-heated meat. Archetype Buffet is complete. Wysong also makes a number of all-meat cat and dog foods, which are not nutritionally complete and are meant to be supplemented. Wysong makes a variety of pet foods, some of which are nutritionally complete diets in themselves, others of which are meant to be supplements to improve the diet; for example, if you are feeding a commercial dry food, you can increase the meat content of the cat's diet by supplementing with Wysong's all-meat products. Ya know... I'm thinking that Wysong may want to simplify their product line somewhat. I need a Sherpa guide to figure out which of their products is supposed to do what, and that *can't* be good for sales.... L. |

Date: 4/13/2004 9:18 AM Easter Archetype is a complete diet. I think Vegan is the one that's supposed to be supplemented by a protein source of your choice. I use Archetype as treats sometimes. It's a freeze dried food that you have to add water to, let it soak and then feed it. My cats didn't like it that way so I just give them little pieces of it dry. There's another company that came out with a freeze dried diet I believe. I think their website is www.naturesvariety.com Lauren ________ 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 |

Their philosophy is based on a sort of matrix--the best diet you can provide balanced with how much effort you are willing to put into it. So they provide foods/supplements for several different levels of convenience. In other words, if you prefer to feed a typical commercial diet, they offer ways for you to improve it. According to them, at the top of the scale (best possible diet) would be freshly killed prey of the kind that dogs and cats normally eat. At the bottom of the scale would be a low quality generic cat food. Of course the top of the scale is not really practical for most people, so Wysong offers products to let you choose where you want to be on that scale. If they simplified it by only offering a couple lines of pet food, then they'd be pretty much like every other pet food mfr, right? So I don't think they'd want to do that. If you just want to feed one product in their line, choose Vitality canned or dry. That is their sort of all-purpose feline maintenance diet. Oh, I have no problem with their philosphy, I think it's great. It's just that, on their website, it's impossible to tell how each of the products is intended to be used -- and they have so many, it makes it really difficult to figure out which one will fit in with what kind of diet. Maybe they could put up some kind of guide on the website? Or maybe they have one and I just couldn't find it... L. |
