Not Ranked. Helpful AND tactful post? : 0 I will never be a vegetarian in my entire life, but I'm just curious about the pets.. | | ...that you guys have. I think vegpeople have a wonderful idea, but what do you do about the welfare of your carnivore pets(dogs, cats), and especially obligate carnivore pets like ferrets? And I've seen eggs used in supposedly "vegetarian" dog foods, but if I were one of you, in my opinion, an egg is still an animal. It's just unfertilized, but it easily could've become a lovely chicken or other such poultry, except someone stole it and mushed it up into dog food. Is the idea that the essential missing amino acid is present in eggs?
Also, I just have to voice my opinion that you are being SO cruel to a ferret if you're trying to make it into a "veggie-fuzzbutt". Consuming fruits and veggies, and starches, and fibers, amongst other things, can even be deadly sometimes to ferrets! And they can't live on eggs alone! So, I hope that if you are a vegan/vegetarian & you own a ferret, that you never ever try to force him/her to do the same. That is so horrible. Read "Ferrets for Dummies" and you'll understand. Be kind to fuzzies, or just don't adopt one at all! Save it for someone like me who will feed it the BARF diet, along w/ other things that would probably = total terror for you all(so I'll leave it at this). Try reading "Ferrets for Dummies"!!! (don't read it if you're queasy, for example: it tells you how to offer live prey to your ferret)
Thats all! Please don't take offense, as I certainly do not mean any, and I fully respect your opinions, and keep up the good work! |
