I enjoyed
reading the first edition of Dogs Cats Go Vegetarian for
many reasons. I enjoyed the philosophical and spiritual concepts that
were balanced by the lengthy and finally successful search for scientifically
based vegetarian recipes for both dogs and cats.
I have
recommended this book to many of my clients and they have been pleased
with its contents and with the practical and relatively easy ways
to provide delicious and nutritious diets for their pets.
In
my opinion, the most important part of the new edition (Vegetarian
Cats & Dogs) is the chapter called They Are Doing
It. The many successful and enthusiastic experiences of
those changing their pet's diet from a commercial to a vegetarian
fare should inspire many more to follow their lead.
As a
veterinarian being concerned with the animal's health, it is very
encouraging to observe health improving in many cases after being
on the new regimen.
I feel
that this book will continue to play a vital part in the ongoing transformation
of our present culture to a more loving, caring one that will place
a much higher value on both human and animal life. As we observe the
gentle, loving influence upon the lioness Little Tyke, and the many
dogs and cats responding dramatically to this influence, perhaps we
can view this as a microcosm and then visualize the large macrocosm
of a gentle humankind where they are neither involved in the slaughtering
of other humans nor of animals. We can then see this powerful force,
influencing the animals to adjust the behaviors to be more in harmony
with the peaceful Biblical prophecy concerning the lamb lying down
with the lion.
