Someone asked about feeding their dog, a feculative carnivore, a vegan diet. The response was overwhelmingly, “Don’t, it’s animal abuse”. In fact, that was my exact response. I posted links to several articles explaining that it’s very difficult to feed a feculative carnivore, like a dog, a balanced diet feeding them only vegan.
They didn’t like the word, “force” as in, “forcing a dog to eat vegan.” When I asked how not giving the dog a choice was not forcing their false moreal supperiority on an animal without other options I didn’t get an answer. I also suggested giving the dog a choice between meat and kibble or even a feculative carnivore kibble versus a vegan kibble so they weren’t forcing the dog to eat vegan. That wasn’t popular either.
So…I’m banned from c/vegan. My life will be richer for it.
EDIT: Some of this conversation happened with individuals after the mods hermetically sealed the echo bunker by removing all non-fawningly supportive replies and banning everyone who didn’t fawn positively.
OMG, I had a cat that would fight you for cantelope.
Our cats nibble on the plants and occasionally take vegetables that we’re eating. Beling an oblate carnivore doesn’t mean that you can’t eat vegetables, it just means that they’re a very small part of your diet. Who among us hasn’t seen our cat run outside and immediately chow down on grass? What are you? A cow?
