I fed my cats a lot of different brands even holistic ones. When one of my cats came down with a UTI, I ended up going totally holistic which was a long time ago. Regardless, I'm getting pretty tired of all the abuse going on here on this list. It seems many here can't go 1 minute without trying to abuse someone or call them names. -- Cat Galaxy: All Cats! All The Time!www.catgalaxymedia.com OK, CP, now you're just telling whoppers. I remember when Icarus came down with a UTI and you fed him Science Diet prescription. I also remember you switching them to Purina One. I remember this specifically because I was impressed you made the jump all the way from Special Kitty to P1. That was NOT more than a year ago you were feeding Purina One. Don't make me google again. Neither Science Diet nor Purina One are "holistic" foods. What's your definition of holistic anyway?

So, why not grow up and keep this thing on an adult level. You attack people just as much as anybody else. You responded to several of my posts, claimed my cats were overweight (they aren't) and never answered any of my questions to back up your claims. You dropped the subject when I replied yet again that my cats are not overweight. I am always open to trying better things, but I am not going to try something or give up something based on an opinion from somebody who cannot back their claims. On the topic of canned foods, what high quality premium foods are available in 3 oz cans? I have two cats that cannot finsih off a 3 oz can at one time and refuse to eat saved leftovers. As of now, the higest quality food I can find in a 3 oz can is Fancy Feast. I don't want to buy larger cans and throw most of it out. |

... Ok you want proof. I invite you to read the labels between the holistic brands and FF. You will see a big difference in quality. Telling someone to read the labels of "holistic" foods and FF is not proof - if for no other reason than you do not specify *WHICH* "holistic cat food you mean. There are dozens of brands of "holistic" food offered, each with a different set of ingredients, but most of them carp that's labeled "holistic" to dupe fools like you. Also, I have serious doubts that you shell out the bucks for a decent diet for your cats when I've read your posts about "cost saving", some about cat food: http://tinyurl.com/2z7gr6, some about using the Humane Society for your cats' vacs so you wouldn't have to pay the cost of an physical examination, http://tinyurl.com/25vlsl, some about using human toothpaste to save a buck on cat toothpaste: http://tinyurl.com/2a2h94, and I quote: "I am now attempting to get in the habit of brushing my cats teeth and am wondering if I can use a regular toothbrush and what non-harmful toothpaste I can use for them? I would buy the toothpaste they have at Petsmart but they wanted a little too much money. Can our human toothpaste be used for cats?" You then went on for several posts defending your cheapness. Finally, tell me *EXACTLY* what brand of "holistic" cat food you mean and *THEN* I will be able to read for myself the differences in quality. Until then you have not proved that you know your ass from a hole in the ground. I, on the other hand, *HAVE* read the labels of the foods I feem my cats, Fancy Feast "pate" varieties - and I've posted it here at least a few times (http://www.possibleplaces.com/fancy_feast_values/), but since you seem incapable of learning, I don't guess posting it again here will do the least bit of good.

I wish someone here would explain why NUTRITIONALLY cat food has vegetables now (*organic* ones, no less). Using the manufacturer of the food as a source for info doesn't count!! :-) Sherry All anyone need do is think about cats and where they came from for a few minutes.... Cats evolved in a desert climate. They had very little plant material and almost no free water in their environment. They got all the "by-products" they needed from their prey - and their prey, being composed of appx. 75% water, filled their hydration needs. Cats are "obligate carnivores" (obligate meaning obliged, or forced, to a meat-only diet). About 95% of the vegetable matter put into cat food is there only for "filler" - it mostly just passes through cats' digestive system without being absorbed into or used by their bodies (so that percentage of the food you buy does nothing except fill the litter box with more crap - that's why people are so surprised by how much less they have to scoop when they switch to a premium cat food). Dry cat food commercials make me laugh when they show beautiful carrots and other veggies that may appeal to a cat's owner, but not to a cat. Since cats were not evolved to drink their water, they mostly don't drink enough when they are fed dry food (thus the high incidence of kidney and urinary tract problems for cats fed a dry-only diet). Since canned cat food is composed of appx. 75% water, this meets their hydration needs perfectly. Oops, off my soapbox now - sorry for the lecture Sherry, you probably already know all this!
