Comment of the Week

“‘Per the cat study-
my experience with my cat Shiva-
she is approaching 16 and can’t hunt anymore because the hair was irritating her esophagus, and she was throwing up all the time… she was getting weaker and weaker… i didn’t want to put her on meds so i bought some organic chicken livers… she gobbled them right down, then i gave her grasss-fed heart and chicken hearts, I’m going to try grass-fed kidneys this week… she is looking amazing! Her coat is now healthy and she is gaining weight… the vet has always told me she is the healthiest cat she’s ever seen, never fleas or worms, but she was an accomplished hunter, averaging about two gophers per day, which she could hunt, take to our lawn, and consume in totality in less than 5 mins… sometimes if I just looked away it was gone, not a hair left… when she lost this ability, she started to decline very quickly, the organ meets are regaining her strength and vitality daily, she is de-aging!!!!

-Nice tale of a decidedly non-vegan cat.
