There are plenty of reasons to consider feeding vegetarian cat food to your kitty. We all know cats and dogs to be carnivorous animals that need meat to survive in the wild. The reason for this is that cats and other domesticated animals don't have the access to information that we do. Meat natrually provides them with the essential nutrients, fat and energy their bodies need to survive. Many vegetarian animal activists are switching to vegetarian cat food, in an effort to completely stop supporting commercial meat production and animal testing. Not everyone will agree with this line of thinking, but some people feel it's hypocritical to keep an animal as a friend on one hand, while supporting other products (cow farming, pet food manufacturing, etc) on the other. Cats only need a couple of key nutrients from meat in order to maintain health. If you're going to switch your cat to a vegan diet: You'll need to make sure the vegetarian cat food you choose for them is fortified with Taurine and Arachadonic Acid. Taurine is an amino acid that's essential for your cat's health -- If your kitty doesn't received it, both blindness and death can result in a rather short period of time. Arachadonic Acid is an essential fatty acid that's necessary for your cat to maintain proper digestive health. Remember that many commercial, over-the-shelf type cat and dog food products are mainly animal by-products that were deemed not fit for human consumption. With that in mind; your cat is eating a lot of food that they wouldn't be eating much of if they had to hunt for their own food. A vegetarian cat food designed with your cat's health in mind and fortified with Taurine and Arachadonic Acid is a far cleaner, healthier alternative.
