“This trend was clear and consistent and these results largely concur with previous, similar studies. A sizeable body of studies have been published within the last two years, exploring health outcomes of vegan diets in cats and dogs, and the environmental impacts of meat-based pet food. This evidence is remarkably consistent—nutritionally sound vegan diets produce health outcomes as good or better, and are associated with major environmental benefits.”

    Yeah… no.

    Im a vegetarian myself, I have a cat. I know humans can sustain themselves without meat especially when eating dairy and or supplemented plant products. I take my own health into my own hands. But from everything I’ve read cats definitely do need meat to survive. Mother nature didnt really take my worldview into account when designing cats. Therefore the only meat I buy is the food for my cat. He’s not a vegetarian and I respect that.
