Phil, get off her freaking back. She offered some advice. Mary's a big
girl. She doesn't have to take it if she doesn't want to. Why are you
jumping around threads *just* to rip on her? Don't you have anything
better to do? Give your advice and lay off, the bickering is getting
ridiculous!


Karen,
I won't speak for Phil, but continuous attempts to cure every ill
known to man by suggesting a raw diet is really really dangerous.
Seriously it is extremely dangerous to offer some of the advice I have
seen on this and other NG's by the raw crowd. I've seen advice for
renal failure cats and dogs that would have killed them in very short
order. I think there is an obligation to temper the wild claims and
testimonial evidence with some facts once in awhile. Some pet's will
inevitably suffer if it isn't done.


Oh please, give me a freakin' break already, Steve! It's so obvious that you
have a problem with anyone who doesn't feed a commercial diet and especially
Hill's, the company YOU work for. I've never claimed a raw diet will "cure
every ill known to man" and I've never seen anyone else in this newsgroup make
that claim either. That is a bald face lie and you know it!

You just can't stand it that I tell people my experiences with Hill's products.
I wish they had worked out for my animals, but the truth is, they didn't and I
will continue to tell of my experiences, both with Hill's, other foods and a
raw diet. If you don't like it, feel free to killfile me.

. My little Meesha has it too.




Sure she does, "Me Too" Lauren.... Lemme guess: She developed asthma

from
eating Science Diet....?


In my

particular case, we see a hollistic vet, and we switched her to a

homemade

raw

diet, as well as using natural remedies, which has been greatly


beneficial.


Are you now saying you switched your cat to a raw diet specifically as

part
of a therapeutic plan to treat her asthma, or was her development of

asthma
and subsequent switch to a raw diet coincidental to your au naturel
fanatical obsession?

Didn't you say you switched all your animals to a raw at the same time?

Do
try to keep your conjured up stories and built-to-suit-experiences in

some
kind chronological order....



Asthma and granulomas can indicate a weak immune system,



More of your au naturel fanatic cult nonsense.... Most cats with either

or
both diseases are otherwise healthy. Both diseases have multiple

causes,
the most common causes are hypersensitivity and genetic predisposition.

The
prevalence of asthma in the Siamese is 5 times higher than in the

general
feline population -- which *strongly* suggests a genetic predisposition.
There is no breed predilection for EGC, but the prevalence of indolent

ulcer
is higher in females.



Phil, get off her freaking back.


LOL! You sound like a drill sergeant! I hope you don't look like one! If
you want to give me an order, call my sales department in the morning....

I simply asked her for clarification because there seems to be a discrepancy
in the chronological order of her conjured up, built-to-suit, stories....

You may want to rethink your position. I'd hate to see you jeopardize your
credibility by supporting an obvious pathological liar.

No one exactly knows what all affects these kinds of disorders, so back
off.


LOL! Sounds like an order.... If you want to place an order, call my sales
dept. LOL!

Unless you can *disprove* what was stated, it remains a viable
opinion, just like most on here.


So you would like me to disprove an unproven theory? Okey dokey... ROTFL!

I don't take orders.... You can place your orders through my sales

She offered some advice.

Mary's a big
girl. She doesn't have to take it if she doesn't want to.



Mary or others may not have known Me Too Lauren's information wasn't
accurate....


Why are you
jumping around threads *just* to rip on her?


No. Simply correcting her misleading information...


Don't you have anything

Yes...I do but I'm not doing it because I had to correct Me Too Lauren's
misleading information...


Give your advice and lay off,


See my above instruction for placing orders....

Thanks, Karen. Dr. Hamilton is a highly respected veterinarian,


Homeopaths are *not* "highly respected veterinarians" by the mainstream
veterinary community... In fact, many if not most mainstream vets think
homeos are quacks. More importantly, many mainstream vets feel homeos are
*dangerous* because they deny or delay *real* veterinary care in the early
stages of disease when *real* veterinary care has the greatest chance of
effecting a cure.

One of our vets was an emergency and critical care specialist for 14 years.
Many homeo-treated animals ended up in his hospital, most died, because
their owners relied on homeos' "naturel remedies" and their other voodoo and
magical concoctions and magic wand waving when simple and timely *real*
veterinary care would have saved the animals' lives. They rushed their
animals to the emergency clinic when they finally realized the homeo was
quack and their animal was dying... Unfortunately, it was usually too late.


something Phil
is NOT. Let's see, shall I listen to a highly respected professional
veterinarian,


"Highly respected" by mostly clueless idiots like you... You don't have a
clue how ignorant you are because you only listen to what you want to hear
and only read your $10 novels by vet-turned-booksellers who couldn't get
published in *real* veterinary texts...

A Chinese proverb describes you perfectly: "The frog at the bottom of the
well thinks the whole sky is only a meter wide"....


or some a*hole vet wannabee on an internet newsgroup? LOL


Now that sure sums up your mentality! LOL! IOW, *everyone*
posting advice in internet newsgroups are "a*hole vet wannabee s" including
*you*! LOL!

You keep forgetting I remember when you began posting.... You sure
accumulated a lot of "experiences" before you began posting *after* you
began posting.... LOL!

Oh please, give me a freakin' break already, Steve! It's so obvious that

you
have a problem with anyone who doesn't feed a commercial diet and

especially
Hill's, the company YOU work for.


*You* give us a freakin break already! You have a "me too" story about your
cats for almost every illness that has been mentioned on this newsgroup for
the last year or so that you claim "disappeared" after you switched to
feeding raw! You're just not smart enough to remember your stories...


I've never claimed a raw diet will "cure
every ill known to man"


.....just nearly all the diseases mentioned on this newsgroup in the past
year or so....

and I've never seen anyone else in this newsgroup make
that claim either. That is a bald face lie and you know it!


And who would know more about bald face lies than you! They're your
specialty....


You just can't stand it that I tell people my experiences with Hill's

products.

ROTFL! We've fed Hill's foods to literally *thousands* of animals over
that past few years, and our 4 vets' clients feed Hill's to well over
another thousand animals too. No *hundred* cats *combined* experienced half
of the adverse effects that you claim your cats experienced from Hill's
foods! If even half of your conjured up bullsh!t stories were true your
cats would have been dead years ago.

All the clerks *combined* in all three large pet stores where we have
adoption centers don't get anywhere near the number of complaints about
adverse effects from Hill's that you conjure up. The stores donate returned
foods so I *know* which foods are returned.... and Hill's is rarely, rarely
returned.

You must be a complete idiot or more likely, a psycho if you actually think
people believe your stories. Even a moron would have switched foods after
the first, or at the most, second adverse effect... instead of switching
foods after at least a dozen or so adverse effects like you claim your cats
experienced.

You have a "me too" story for almost every adverse effect that has been
mentioned about Hill's on this newsgroup for the last year or so! You're
just not intelligent enough to remember all your conjured up bullsh!t
stories. How about your last beaut of story a couple of weeks ago? Anal sac
disease from eating Hill's! ROTFL! Gee, you never mentioned that one
before... and dozens of people posted about anal sac disease in the past few
years... What happened, you suddenly remembered you cats got that too...
and got it from eating Hill's? ROTFL!

You forget I remember when you began posting here. Following your conjured
up stories, your cats experienced more adverse effects from Hill's *after*
you *stopped* feeding Hill's than they did when they were *actually* eating
Hill's! LOL!

I've never seen anyone in my life with such an obsessive, malicious, and
actual pathological hatred for any pet food as you have for Hill's. There's
something seriously wrong with you.
