With all of the cat foods that have been recalled, you’re probably wondering if your cat food is a safe cat food. While some cat food on the market today is safe the majority of the cat food actually does your cat more harm then good.

The majority of store bought cat foods have no nutritional value in them at all. What’s worse is that they may actually contain poison. You don’t want your cat to eat poison? Well one of the many meat sources for cat food is dogs and cats that have been put down at the pound.

The problem with this is (other then the obvious that your cat is not a cannibal) is that the poison they use to put the animals down does not cook out when they cook the meat.

Anything that is on the dog or cat is also considered fair game to use as a meat source. This includes any metal id tags, flea collars, and even hair and teeth. Another meat source that is used is road kill that is to big to dispose of by digging a hole in the ground.

Another form of meat used in cat food is parts of a cow that are diseased. Any part of the cow that is inedible for human consumption such as a cyst in a leg, cancerious lungs, or any part that is pussy can also be used in cat food.

So that leaves us with dead, dying, or diseased animals for the meat source and the meat by products are even worse. It’s no wonder that most cats don’t even live half of their natural life expectancy.

The more information I found out about cat food, the harder it became to feed it to my cats. Just the thought of touching my cat’s food was appalling.

In order to give your cat a safe diet that will allow him to get the nutrition he needs to grow strong and healthy a combination of homemade cat food and safe commercial cat food is recommended.
