Guest guest Posted December 5, 2002 Report Share Posted December 5, 2002 I think pets eat a lot of junk especially dogs fed dried pet food. Yeah its full of vitamins etc but its also full of maize and grains which a dog on a natural diet would not eat. Perhaps this is one reason vets are so busy.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2002 Report Share Posted December 5, 2002 Hello Lorenzo, > " Lorenzo " <lorenzo1 I think it's because animals don't eat junk, >Pottinger studied Cats. He found that they can not live on cooked >food........without serious health complications. > >Search for " Pottingers Cats " . > >Lorenzo > I haven't read anything about Pottingers Cats for a couple years. And when I read it I accepted it at its face value , I was interested in eating raw foods myself and am currently eating rvaf (raw veg and animal foods) and I do agree that most raw foods are better for ones health , cats or people. I can only go on my personal experience as far as cats are concerned and pottengers findings. My mother always had cats...many of them ... and they were always fed cooked cat/dog food mostly canned. She usually had 10 and at most 22 at one time. I'm talking 50 years of cats mostly unspayed at that, a few of the cats lived to twenty + years and many lived into late teens, the ones that didn't get run over or carried away by predators. Admittidly they did run free compaired to the caged pottinger cats, I never saw any of the free range cats eat any prey, sure they killed mice, birds etc.but only carried them around as a trophy. The point i'm trying to make is: the cats were able to keep a continuious exchange of genes from outside sources so that I never saw the genetic mutations that pottinger claims he got from his cats that were kept in cages.I'm not sure how many cats that he experiminted with i'm sure that its documented somplace? I never saw any number of cats quoted. I do know that you do get genetic mutations with " in breeding " Regards Charles > > _______________ Help STOP SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know anything about Pottnger's cats, but I find gross generalizations of any kind to be questionable. We are all different (including cats or any other creature). We all have different reactions to different things and to say that any one thing is bad for a whole species is, well irresponsible. Julie Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
