A friend of mine recently brought my attention to this horrible brand on the market called "Evolution Diet" - http://www.evolutiondietstore.com/product.sc?productId=3&categoryId=27 They sell food for cats, dogs, and even ferrets, which we all know are carnivores! Cats and ferrets especially are "obligate carnivores" so a diet like this one is exceptionally dangerous to them.
If you look at the ingredient list on the foods, it's all grains, corn, soy and vegetables, which in large amounts is terrible for cats as most of us well know! I did write to the company (as did my friend) about the importance of proper nutrition for obligate carnivores, but this is the exact response I received, absolutely awful and completely unprofessional:
"Evolution Diet
Do me a favor and kill yourself you ugly disgusting piece of Animal Killing Scum. You are the Filth of the Planet. Drop Dead. Lay off You are not only Aniaml Killing Scum, you are harassing our ethical Co. you piece of living ****. Die!"
I normally have nothing against people who choose to be vegans/vegetarians themselves, but forcing their own ideals on pets, whose bodies just can't handle this kind of diet, is just plain wrong! People like this should just own rabbits or guinea pigs if they want a vegetarian pet. I was really upset to see this, knowing there's probably lots of animals out there having to survive on this "diet" just because of their owner's extremes.
After getting that email, I wrote a very negative review on their Facebook page, as did a few others from a ferret group I'm also a part of
Anyway, just thought I should bring this to attention! ..Please don't feed your carnivorous kitties a vegan diet!
