That's not healthy for a cat. They can't digest plant material well, and they require essential nutrients that only meat can provide to them
To be honest if they let their cat wonder the neighborhood like most pet owners do then the cat is more than likely not a vegan. They go out and find mice and birds to eat
They don't go out - they are indoor 100% of the time!
What is her reasoning behind this?
She believes that it's healthier for the animal because *she* is also vegan.
If you feel like the at is losing weight too fast or malnourished I would speak up
Thanks, I would really hope that it wouldn't get to that point. Ideally, I hope to avoid this situation!
I have had several pet owners tell me that they want to switch their pets to a vegan diet and I honestly don't understand the thrill or reasoning behind it
I tell my patients the same thing. They have to understand that these animal come from wildlife that survived mainly on meat of other animals. That is how their bodies are made
With situations like this I will just talk to the owner of the possible effect of the diet to his or her pet's health which will eventually lead to serious health conditions of the cat. If the owner still insists, then I might refuse to render services the next time.
To me, the cat is the owner’s pet. It’s her responsibility to do what she feels is best. It’s our responsibility to share with empathy and evidence, anecdotes, our concern and document it.
A lot of what we do is partnering and hoping we see eye to eye and meet in the middle, by engaging, reflective listening, empathy, enlisting their input.
