I find this hard to believe. Where did this statistic come from? Does "childless" here really mean without children in the household? Most of the pet owners I know have children. If older people don't have pets it usually is to make travel easier. Vancouver class action lawyer Lucianna Brasil explains…”In fact, about two thirds of pet owners are

Although we "deploy" a wide mix of high-end cat foods, raw, canned, kibble, and home-cooked, I began to notice that our cats suddenly went right off one very well regarded brand, one that never had a problem during the recall last year. In fact our "you-ignore-him-at-your-own-risk" cat suddenly barfed it all up right away... well, let call him ultra-finicky, but the once-starved kitten who now eats everything sniffed it and walked away. Before I ask "Is another problem brewing, and from a different direction?" I am careful to evaluate my own cats to make sure it's nothing in their environment, or an unseen medical or emotional problem, or an aspect of their living context that could be causing this. But I have a sinking feeling it IS the food. Perhaps just that batch. But it's always good to be on the lookout. Strange you should mention this topic a year later.

Now Oliver only gets our homecooked food and eats several small portions a day and has not had any toss ups since :) He eats with Gusto :) I guess i was just being stupid to think i was doing a good thing for our Oliver..but we had a yorkie,Rudy, before him and we gave him our homemade food once he got sick and he lived for 16 years. i remember as a child the dog food they had was like a beef stew, beef cubes, carrots, peas, potatoes and gravy in a can and dog lived up to 20 years on that stuff...That food looked and smelled so good u would like to eat it urself :) How can u say Buone Appetto to a dry kibble on a plate ! Hope UR weekend will be a SUNNY one !
