In episode 08, the ladies discuss plant-based pet food. The BBC published an article that explores the use of plant-based proteins in pet food (i.e. dog and cat food). Plant-based pet foods have been available internationally for several decades and yet many consumers remain unaware that such products exist. The ethics of feeding mainstream vs alternative foods to our beloved cats and dogs remains an ongoing debate within the plant-based community. Tabby introduces several points made by experts in animal welfare and veterinary medicine.
There are several plant-based pet foods available on the market: v-dog, ami cat, benevo, wild earth, evolution pet food. (List last updated 3/26/2020).
