Just like people, pets that are not treated right can suffer from stress and other health problems, and an inadequate diet, for example, will make cats more prone to infections and illnesses. By and large, human food does not make good cat treats, although there are a few things that are suitable if prepared with care.

Niman for pasturing the animals to provide all the beef, turkey, chicken and pork eaten in this country?

Would no forests need to be cut down to create the pastures?
