-THE PROBLEM IS THAT MAN HAS BECOME SO CALLUS REGARDING DEATH THAT WE DON'T CARE ANYMORE ABOUT EVEN HUMANS. HOW ELSE DO YOU EXPLAIN A MOTHER GLUING HER 2 YEAR OLD CHILD TO THE WALL AND KICKING HER IN THE STOMACH, ETC. JUST BECAUSE SHE COULDN'T POTTY TRAIN HER. SHE GOT 99 YEARS. ABOUT TIME .

So glad I'm a vegetarian and don't have to face a plate of meat after that tidbit of information. But yes, cats do eat the whole animal and I won't get into the things that they have so generously given me after they caught a bird or lizard but they don't eat cows or sheep or pigs or intestines with the crap in them and that's what commercial by-products are. No one is going to empty and wash out intestines before adding them to the heap. > > > > > > > > Spay and Neuter your cats and dogs and your weird relatives and nasty neighbors too! > > > > _____ > > From: Kathryn Hargreaves > To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org > > Sent: Friday, October 12, 2012 4:36 PM > > > Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] The Price of Cat Food > > > > They do eat by-products when they eat the whole prey, but they are getting all the rest, too, which they don't get with just by-products (where the good stuff has been taken out for human consumption). By-products contain much less nutrition and are often indigestible. Note that cats also get some minerals by eating the dirt that's on the animals. Guess that's why some feral feeders just put the food on the ground. :-) > > > > That has always surprised me when people report that their cat doesn't eat the organs, as those (exept for feces-filled intestines) are the most nutritious things in the prey's body, and also (I've read that) the big cats eat the organs first and bury the rest of the body for the next day. > > > > On Fri, Oct 12, 2012 at 12:22 PM, wrote: > > While we are on the subject of raw diet, don't they eat some of those things when they catch a mouse, rabbit or squirrel or bird? The only things my guys don't eat are the organs, especially intestines.
