From: "Karen M."
GAUBSTER2 wrote: Personally I don't care for IAMS (owned by Proctor & Gamble) or Science Diet (owned by Colgage & Palmolive), mostly because the companies that own these foods do animal testing on their products. Here we go again. Colgate doesn't do animal testing on their products. Why slander them? Bull****. Yes they do. Call the company and ask them yourself. Also, when I fed Science Diet in the past, my cats never did very well on it. My cats have always done fantastic on it. I dont' feed commercial food but my friends who do have cats that do well on Petguard, Felidae, or Wellness. These foods should be available at a large health food market like Whole Foods or Wild Oats, or small pet supply stores. Those are all foods that are appropriate only for kittens and not adult or senior cats. My cats are doing great on Wellness. My vet agrees. One of them is officially a "senior", The other two are adults. Before you go on your SD spew, my cats did very poorly on it. Some do great, mine didn't. Not to mention the fact that they haven't done animal feeding trials. What have they got to hide? Wellness certainly does do feeding trials. And I quote: "Animal feeding tests using Association of American Feed Control Officials procedures substantiate that Wellness Super5mix Adult Cat Food provides complete and balanced nutrition for all life stages." This would have been quite easy to check up on before making false statements. Thanks for an informative and accurate post, Karen. Gabster is so intent on defending Hill's at all costs, that he'll say anything, even if it's untrue.

Lauren Oh come off it Lauren, you know damn well Colgate does no such testing on animals, neither does Hill's. You've been told this numerous times and know damn well it's not true. We are on PETA's OK list for crying out loud. You certainly are not. You're not on their general "does not test" list, nor are you on their list of pet food companies that don't test. So *you* "come off it". You and old Gaubster need to start checkin' yer facts before you post. |

Well, my God. I'm so sick of the 'SD is great everything else is ****'
spewing going on. It's not the only food out there and this is a freaking ad board for Hill's. You like SD, great. Feed it. But don't malign food you know nothing about. Ya know?
