Totally agree!
Vegan pet food is not available in the place I live (and ordering is too expensive). So my option is not to have pets... (when I got married and we moved together to a new apartment, our old pets were left with our parents).
But if I happened to have pets, without having vegan options, I would probably buy those sub-products, which are not consumed by humans and would be otherwise thrown away. What do you think of that?
Thank you for stopping by. We are on the same wavelength. The thing is, if you are buying animal products at all you are fueling the business that is making them. Calling them sub products is also kinda messed up since it once was an animal. It's not sub-products. One thing that I think is okay is accepting leftovers from your pals at work who are going to buy animal products anyway. Just collect the bones. I don't believe you are contributing to any harm that way. And good point about the vegan pet food. I never thought of that before. It completely slipped me. I will have to do some research and find some places online that you can buy them from. I a sure you must be able to buy them online, at amazon even. Thank you for bringing that to my mind.
yeaah, contributing to the industry is the last thing I wanna do. (But that's what I advise to people who would otherwise by whole peaces of meat!).
Yes, getting leftovers from people who'd just throw it away is a great idea! Or taking it from the restaurants, what they would also throw. But executing this all seems so difficult. That's why no pets for me yet...
