Thought: Empathy for the house-cat who occasionally gets put outside to navigate the alley but is still a house-cat. That’s just how it is, it’s their primary disposition.

'Team Nigel' rallies behind East Vancouver cat after complaint about feline folk hero
VANCOUVER — As he flops down on an East Vancouver pavement for cuddles and back scratches, Nigel is hardly the picture of a cat with a guilty conscience. But he stands accused of crimes against the neighbourhood — and the ensuing drama has resulted in a movement that’s made the already beloved...

Unconditional knowledge and conditional love got us here I think.
I think that’s the human ambition/ attitude that got the world to such an imbalanced state, and it wasn’t by being universally taught that “knowledge is evil” - because clearly we weren’t universally taught that or we wouldn’t have the technologies we have.

Thought: I saw an interesting mix of political messages on telephone polls around my area. But they are quite polite.
Simplistic thought: We have a capitalist economic system which is dependent on units of production. That is why we produce so much excess in the developed world. All the excess goods in stores and warehouses have already been produced whether we buy them or not - that’s reality. The majority of it is waste, much of it toxic and/ or non biodegradable whether it sits in our home or sits in a store or landfill. It gets there eventually. We need a different system of production.
Reminds me of a couple of animated presentations by British academic/ economist David Harvey over 15 years ago.

Cats are Obligate Carnivores. They weren't meant to be vegan. I had to live with 5 vegan cats for a couple of months before moving into my current place, and I felt terrible for them. Probably worse than necessary, but nothing seemed right. Their poop wasn't right. They were on a constant quest for bugs. They were loved and taken to the vet at the smallest provocation, but it all just seemed so wrong. Is it abuse?
They are also obligate cannibals

Yikes. Well, there could be a universe where animals are vegan and none of them are cannibals. Also, in this one, good reason to stay a house cat, and be fed cat food (made with the meat humans waste).
I wouldn’t. I’d give them regular cat food. Didn’t like it when the outdoor cat I had as a kid would bring us “gifts”, occasionally.
I’ve heard different things from people who all seem to know what they’re talking about - met vegan people who give their dogs meat because they said it’s better for the dogs.
Is that your cat?
There are plenty of not rich, even poor, cat owners. Unless that thought was not about cats.
That seems to be case in the capitalist system we’ve built. Does it have to be that way?

Yes, I know some vegans who.feed their dogs raw chicken. I'm not sure if they believe it's better for the dogs or they just know the dogs enjoy it.
And they say raw chicken bones are fine. It's the cooked chicken bones that can splinter and cause serious problems for animals.
