Meg,

Do a web search for "PPNF" and "Dr. Pottenger".  He did a fairly well-known
(at least among this group) study on cats and determined that the optimum
diet for cats is raw meat.  I'm going to switch my dog to all meat and a
little veggies as soon as I can afford it.

Take care,
John Pavao

After reading  here on the list and in the archives, it's finally
dawned on me that not only have I been eating the wrong diet,
but methinks my cat is eating the equivalent of what I used to
eat.  Does anyone here have suggestions for alternatives? I
read an archived message from Ray Audette referring to the
"wolf diet" he feeds his dog.

Thanks for your advice on this,
Meg (lurking, and learning tons)
