Couldn’t find anything backing up your claim that meat without synthetic taurine makes cats sick (which sounds like BS) and actually find some info that said that long-term affects of synthetic taurine is unknown in cats, and may not be as bioavailable for them as animal-based taurine.
Not seeing the word “synthetic” there chief. Wanna try again?
Also from your article: "Cat foods that contain high-quality animal-based protein will supply adequate levels of taurine for a normal, healthy cat.
Supplemental taurine may be added to certain cat foods, especially diets that are formulated for specific needs such as heart disease or growth and development"
Yes. I don’t trust these things because they are often wrong and almost always leave out relevant information. Just click on the link and read the context. It’s not that hard.
Food is just chemicals and it turns out it doesn’t actually matter if the chemicals have a soul attached to them or not. Personally don’t think vegans should own pets at all but the whole “they carnivores tho” is rly dumb
If you knew the history of cat food you would know that even meat made cats sick without added synthetic taurine.
They have since added taurine to all cat foods.
Vegan cat food is perfectly healthy for cats.
Was curious so I looked it up.

There is literally no difference in chemical structure between synthetic and natural taurine.
🤔
You’re arguing with a person who thinks the abstract google throws at you when looking for some information is to be trusted…
And even then the blurb didn’t contradict what I said at all. They’re clearly just desperate for a “gotcha”.
No internet vegan is looking for a gotcha we’re all just masochistic
Bro so are you just assuming every first result on google is wrong regardless of what it is?

Okay class
So this is taurine
It literally dont matter how you get it it the same shit
QED
Heres an article https://www.news-medical.net/health/Taurine-Synthesis-and-Production.aspx
See my above comment.
Also all of that is irrelevant to the (false) claim that “cats get sick from eating meat without synthetic taurine”.
No but if you’re a vegan you can’t have the stuff out of animals; you have to make your own.

You’re willing to toy with making a cat blind AND spread information. Fuck off forever.

Vegans wouldn’t “Own” someone else. Plenty of vegans rescue other animals and take care of them as wards.
I personally don’t use the word pet when referring to non-human animals in someone’s care.
Why not? That’s the exact scenario the word applies to.
Because I use the same word for human animals and non-human animals. I would call a foster kid my pet. I call them my ward or a ward of the state.
