Some elderly cats are real good eaters - but, no matter how much
they stuff themselves, they stay a little on the thin side. Other
senior cats seem to get excessively fat. So, no
matter how much advice there is on the side of cans and packets, the
main thing to remember is that your cat is an individual - and the only
way to judge the right amount of feed is by condition.
But why feed from cans, packets and pouches? The
contents are hardly fresh are they? We don't even know
exactly what's in them, except that it will most probably include
'animal by-products'. Not food fit for human
consumption. And the latter is what we should feed all cats,
especially those who are getting on in years. If you are
meat eaters yourself, it's even easier. An extra portion for the
pusscat please. |

A turkey in his natural surroundings enjoying the sunshine
Turkeys are native to North America and at up to 4ft from head to tail, they are the largest birds found in the temperate parts of the world. These are birds of woodlands and while they spend their days foraging on the ground for something good to eat, at night they roost in trees. The typical diet of a turkey includes grubs, insects, spiders, seeds, grains and berries and, as they consume large quantities of pests, their prescence is of great benefit to the environment.

Up until the 1990's the number of horse meat shops in France was on
the decline. Now new ones are opening up every day.
Suddenly new shops are opening up and this ghastly trade in horsemeat
is on the increase. The origins of eating horses come from the
siege of Paris in 1870 - it became a staple diet for a starving
population. Now it's seem to be a cult food and is priced
accordingly. People like to try something different , but eating
horses is taboo and should always be considered so. |
