The Importance Of Organic Pet Food

The fab 5 major pet food manufacturers would have you believe that cute little packaged servings of food served with love from you but the increase in pet health issues will tell you different. I recommend that all of you read the book "The Food Pets Die For" by Ann N. Martin. This book has great information on the most common pet foods and manufacturers. Actually it would be a great Christmas gift for your favorite petsitter since she has to go to the library to get it or read excerpts on line.

Organic And Natural Pet Food Defined

When reading labels on various foods it can get confusing. This site lists definitions of various terms that are commonly used to describe pet foods on the packaging. I believe this site also has pet products for sale that you can check out. If you find anything good let me know.

Organic Pet Food Gets Paws Up

Check out this USA Today article about the rise of organic pet food. Here are some excerpts from the article to whet your appetite. "Even Fido and Mittens are going organic...Organic pet food sales, up 63% last year, are growing at nearly 3 times the rate of human organic food sales, says the Organic Trade Association...Among all organic products - foods untouched by preservatives, pesticides, hormones and antibiotics - only sales of organic meats are growing faster...

Information About Organic Pet Foods

Hello All. I wanted to let you know that in the next few days and weeks I will be collecting information on organic pet foods for you. I will be purchasing and receiving samples of each of the pet foods that I am planning to research and I will be rating them over time for you. I will also be listing ingredients for you in case you have something you don't want your cat or dog to eat. In the end I hope this will enable you to make better choices about the food your animals will be eating. I come from farm country and I have found there to be a vast difference between country animals and city animals. In the country animals are a way of life and making a living for the people who own them and the job of the vet is to help the farmer make money and keep entire herds of animals alive and healthy. In the city animals are a way of life and making a living for the vet and the job of the vet is to keep your pet alive long enough to milk you of all the money you can give them because of the ailments that they have from the nutrient deficiencies caused by the psuedo food and over medication of the poor little guys. You may ask whether or not my opinion is based on fact or simple bias. Take it from someone who has grown up from birth caring for and medicating a variety of animals small and large this is the way of the pet world. Check the cost of medical care in cities vs. rural areas and you will see that the vets in the city make a great living while vets in the rural areas live right near the same lifestyle of the farmer. This is why I will be talking the next few entries about organic foods for your pet. Organic foods have not been processed to remove the good stuff along with the bad. I figure if you're gonna spend money at the vet then you could reduce the vet bill and increase the food bill the same amount. Take the petsitter challenge and we'll see if it works.
