Vegan dog and cat food --- I'm not sure about them. I don't think we really know all that much about dog and cat nutrition. I do think it's safer for doggies to be vegan since they are omnivores. I have heard of healthy vegan kitties but that does not mean it would be right for every cat.

It would help the matter if animal nutrition was more stressed in the veterinary schools!!!
I voted no, it's bad for the pets. I would have been more comfortable with no, it's not a proven diet for the pets.

However, I agree with Kater. For a kittiy I am pretty sure that it is not heathy, but then again I don't know that for sure. I will stick to convention wisdom at this point. For a puppy it may be fine, but once again we do not know for sure.
