I think horses have some kind of a stomach thing - they can't burp  
isn't it?  Consequently they can get in deep doo-doo so to speak,   
stomach-wise if they eat the wrong thing .

I've never heard about it with cats.  I know the larger breed dogs are 
more prone to it and that it helps to have their food elevated and to 
not feed directly after strenuous exercise.

Maybe that's it. The size of the animal. We were just talking about how everyone here is so good about feeding 'good' diets to their cats and I give mine dry food. The dogs too. And I know it's not the best for them, but it's so much easier when you have a zoo to take care of... I need to try to do better. tNina [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:  I've never heard about it with cats.
