THE GREAT VEGETARIAN CAT FOOD DEBATE OF 2010: THE AFTERMATH







On the way out to Wondertucky on Sunday, I stopped by Bo's to pick some of Kirby's special kidney-friendly kibble. I'd decided not to force the vegetarian stuff on him, since he didn't seem to want it.

Bo was gone for the day, and had left the bag of prescription kibble in a bin outside her front door.

I picked it up, and left behind a bagful of goodies, including a package of maamoul cookies and wet and dry versions of the vegetarian cat food that Kirby didn't like. I figured her cats might give it a try.

The next day I got a voicemail from Bo:

"Thanks for the cookies and the can of vegetarian cat food.

"But we got home really late, and the raccoons chewed all the way through the plastic container and devoured whatever was in it - so we didn't get to eat it. It must have been good. There wasn't anything left"

Apparently, cats don't love vegetarian cat food.

Raccoons do.


I wonder if they washed it first.

  3. I like that cat tunnel! Wonder if I can find one in Australia?! And no surprise about the lack of vegetarian genes in cats! I've read somewhere that there are actually essential nutrients/stuff in meat that cats need to have ...
