It boggles the mind. My brother is a strict vegan. Once upon a time, in his early days of being vegan, he tried to force his wife into veeganism too (I remember clearly one day mom, SIL, and I went to lunch where she ordered an egg salad sandwhich and begged us to never tell him she ate eggs)

Well, that was years ago and now he's still strict on himself, but his wife freely eats eggs when she wants to in front of him and they feed the babies meat, eggs, cheese, milk, etc daily. He now realizes that just because its his life choice does not mean he should subject his principles upon others - especially people (and animals) who cannot make the choice for themselves. He would hope one day his sons grow up and eat like him but doesn't insist upon it. Same goes for his cat and dogs. He feeds them quality food (well, now he does thanks to me... they were feeding utter crap until I told them about Nutro )

Same goes for the director of the rescue. She is a very strict vegetarian. Not sure if she's also a veegan. She knows that her cats need meat. She did look up the vegetarian diets just out of curiosity but never switched her cats to it. To her, the health of her cats is more important than the fact that they eatvegetarian diet.
