Did you know???

• Studies estimate anywhere from 1 in 4 to 1 in 2 cats in America are obese?
• Veterinary schools generally offer only two courses in animal nutrition,
  one of which focuses on "food animals" such as cows, pigs, and chickens -
  the other which is a mere one credit hour and covers "companion animals"
  (dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, etc.?)
• Seminars in nutrition are usually taught by pet food companies, promoting
  their own products?
• Research indicates most of the long-thought recommendations for feeding
  felines with health issues are at best, inconclusive, and at worst
  incorrect?
• Cats have long been treated as "small dogs" - in fact, cat food was
  originally just dog food made in smaller pieces?
• Feline diabetes, kidney disease, and intestinal disorders are all on the
  rise?
• More than two-thirds of cats have dental disease by the age of three?
• Many popular cat foods predispose our feline friends to diabetes, obesity,
  kidney disease, urinary crystals, intestinal disorders, and a myriad of
  other problems?
