Just read about what is really in cat food
I just read a book called "Food Pets Die For" and it is horrifying!!!
This woman did an extensive study about the ingredients which go into cat and dog food. Almost all of the major brands include euthanized cats and dogs in their formula, as well as all of the spoiled and diseased parts of animals which are not fit for human consumption. In some cases, the protein ingredients in cat food are actually heat treated feathers and hair, and sometimes heat treated fecal matter. There is even road kill in some cat food. Some brands, including Iams, Eukanuba, and Science Diet, fund cruel animal experiments on cats and dogs at universities. They give to good causes as well, but, wow... Some of the pet food companies which have healthier ingredients are Petguard, Natura, and some others (cant remember) |

Think of the birds, mice, whatever cats will eat. Human grade? ;-)

You should be aware that the term "Human Grade" means absoutely NOTHING under law. In fact it has been so misused by various companies that the term is being considered for legislation to stop the misuse of the term and the deception of consumers. Companies used the term "organic" then the law stepped in and made them actually be organic - now there are no companies using the term organic- wonder why? Then came "All Natural" and the law stepped in and made them actually be "All Natural" what happened to all those hundreds of companies claiming to be "All Natural" they moved on to... "Holistic" and "Human Grade" - another meaningless term with absolutely no teeth whatsoever. I could market used crankcase oil and sewage and call it holistic and human grade it would mean nothing. When "human grade" gets smacked by the law, these same companies will move on to other terms that have no meaning at all but fool consumers everyday. There ought to be a pool for the next meaningless term to be created by a fanciful marketing department. |

Hi Steve,
You say this is if you can speak for Hill's with certainty? Just curious as I'm always keeping an ear out for information regarding quality of pet foods. Cheers, Purplecat "Steve Crane" wrote in message om... (kate) wrote in message . com...

Some of the pet food companies which have healthier ingredients are Petguard, Natura, and some others (cant remember) I cannot speak for the others but such allegations about Hill's Science Diet are completely without any foundation in fact whatsoever. They are utterly in error. Hill's funds NO invasive research of any kind. Neither are there any of the ingredients in any Science Diet product as indicated in the note above. Utter rubbish! |
