I’ve seen this many times on many different forums. There always has to be a debate about what type of diet people feed their pets.
Almost everyone seems to think that their way is right. Whether it be a BARF (Bones And Raw Food), home-made food, gourmet kibble, or cheap kibble. If someone chooses to feed something else, then they aren’t a very good owner.
Are you a pet owner like this? Why do you think your pet’s diet is the right diet?
My own personal opinion: I feed my pets cheap stuff. Why? Because I have seen firsthand how in the factory the “gourmet” food goes down one conveyor belt and the “cheap” food goes down another. It is the same food in a different bag.
This is done with human food, pet food, clothes, etc. Almost all large companies put out an “expensive” brand and a “cheap” brand. It even comes in the same delivery truck to the grocery store.
My pets also get table scraps. I use my common sense when offering these. They get leftover meats and vegetables.
I think the diet that I feed my pets is just fine. I have 3 cats (10 years, 9 years, 7 months) and 1 dog (7 years). No one has had any health problems so far and they go to vet annually.

I lost my beloved 16 year old Bobby on July 22 of this year. He had some health problems over the years. He had inflammatory bowel disease and changing his diet would improve his condition and when it stopped I took him to the vet for help. He gave him steroids that he would take and then he would get better again and then this happened a few times. Finally, in his last month he quit responding to steroids. This was in June. The vet advised me to have him put to sleep but he did this without even doing any blood work. I didn’t think this was right considering it was only an educated guess. He said he probably had cancer in his stomach or instestines and that he was suffering from kidney failure. Well, I took him for a second opinion the following week. This vet ran blood tests on him and said that he was not suffering from kidney failure and that he didn’t even think he had lymphoma. He said he was suffering from hyperthyroidism. He gave me some medicine….
