    I think it is a lot more ethical than forcing death because people enjoy eating their meat.

    Also, “forced” is the wrong word. Only very few vegans would be stupid enough to not monitor their pet in these cases. And you can talk shit about them as much as you want because they are wrong. But somebody that’s just trying to see if it’s possible while monitoring and following up on the health of their animals? Sure.

      What do you mean by forcing being the wrong word? Do you give the cat a bowl of meat and a bowl of vegan alternative for a month, and then see what the cat chooses? That would not be forcing imo. But i doubt that’s happening anywhere.

        No you give them reinforced vegan pet food and see if they like it and remain healthy. If they don’t then you just switch back.

        Vegan pet food is specifically designed to have all the nutrients they need.
