I now hate the thought f eating meat. Occasionally a little bacon and part of the chickens I buy for the cats and dog go to make stock, but red meat is out It is as others say, personal choice.
Mercy Fancy Superhuman wrote: » Feeding your cats and dogs (and yourself) chicken is still contributing to the raising for slaughter of animals. Your occasional bacon is a by product of animal slaughter as well. Your post doesn't make much sense in that regard.

Graces7 wrote: » Thanks for this sense. I never at any time by the way said I was a vegan etc. My serious illness means I have so many dietary restrictions that I cannot do that For many of us also it is a gradual process. Most food now has to be minced or pureed. Cats are obligate carnivores. I would never restrict their diet for that reason. Dogs less so but still have needs. Bless and thank you too for your kindness and courtesy and understanding on this ' And it can be very very hard for those who love and care for any animal to think of causing death to another living critter ; believe me on that

gozunda wrote: » Why are picking on AH only though? Plenty of posts from vegans within your selection of threads and elsewhere. One of your links was a commentary on the - in your face goveganworld - anti-farming rubbish posted on billboards around the country. Another was from an alternative / plant based diet aficionado etc who posts mainly on such topics. A couple are typical AH banter and in the usual mode of the dissection of a range of sacred cows However I would suggest much of the commentary by non vegans is because of overt coverage in the first place. Take for example the recent shyte storm whipped up by some militant vegans over Philip Boucher-Hayes "what are you eating" show. It's not that he has only looked at one type of diet or lifestyle is it? Imo the grandstanding and preaching by a small number of vegans in these threads is quite eye opening. I'm not really surprised therefore with much of the negative reception tbh.

Grateful Dread wrote: » AH because it's where all the whingers post about vegans and other peopel hang out saying they're forcing their views on everyone. That Boucher-Hayes thing was a bit of a joke. Poorly exectued, little to no research, ignoring facts in the end because he wants to eat meat guilt free - which is fine. He clearly had an agenda. It was laughable and if I was a vegan I'd be pretty pissed off. There are some mental vegans floating around boards alright, I'll grant you that. I just find the whole things bizarre, like who cares if they don't want to eat meat?

gozunda wrote: » Ah thank you for that reply. Though I believe that death amongst animals is inevitable - whether it the cat that gets the mouse, the wolf that takes down caribou or in my case the chicken that ends up in the pot - after being properly dispatched and the meal appreciated for its full value and worth.

Princess Consuela Bananahammock wrote: » In fairness, the dietry requirements of cats and dogs are different to those of humans. Part of the philosophy behind veganism is consent: the animal has not consented to giving it's body/milk/eggs for consumption. It would then be non-consentual to force this philosophy on another living animal that could not consent to the dietry change.
