Hi Marie, I feed my cats a homemade diet and having been doing so for almost 4 years. They are thriving on it. I have a link in my signature for more information.

Sure. It's called "table scraps." Dogs lived on it too, somehow. |

As a result they were generally expected to feed themselves if they were successful at their job. Puss probably got the occasional bowl of fresh warm milk by the hearth, and was quite loved, but until our society had acquired a certain amount of luxury you couldn't probably afford to have an animal that didn't pull its own weight. -Alison in OH |
