I watched your video, and she makes a number of logical errors. She correctly identifies that cats need diets that are nutritionally complete, but then jumps to the conclusion that cats need to eat meat. They don’t. They need to consume the nutrients that have traditionally been found in meat. She overlooks that vegan cat foods are specifically designed to contain all these nutrients, thus making them nutritionally complete.

While I generally agree that vegans shouldn’t adopt cats if possible, Kitten Lady seems to be talking out of her ass.

There’s still an abundance of cats that need adopting that will likely be killed if they can’t get a permanent home. I kinda agree it’s best as a vegan to specifically choose adopting an animal that can also live happily on a vegan diet.

However, if the choice is between adopting a cat and not adopting at all, wouldn’t the greater good still be adopting, especially if you choose a cat that might typically have a hard time finding fosters? (Cats with injuries, or special needs, or black cats, for example.)

The title. On first glance, it reads like you might be implying that the shitshow was the OP’s take.

Reading it again, I get what you’re saying, but it’s written in a kinda confusing way.

This so much. I’ve had dogs snarling at me, and the owner is like “Oh, don’t worry, he’s friendly.” Like no, he’s friendly towards people he knows, not random strangers!

This got severely exacerbated by the pandemic too. A lot of people who had zero business having a dog found themselves with a bit too much free time and decided a new dog was the solution.

I’m going to go out on a limb here, but if you get a dog as a quick fix to your own problems without putting a LOT of thought into it first, you might not be the best person to have a dog.

I’ve been vegan for years, when do I get my boobies and cat ears? :/
