You want answers!

That has been the overwhelming response to my Pet Food Confidential series so far. You're happy about all the information I'm digging up about pet food, but in the meantime, what are you supposed to eat?

The thing is, I'm still doing my research -- and I've got a lot of research to do! I'm learning everything I can about different ingredients, like "meat by-product" and "brewer's rice," and I'm also researching food additives and preservatives. I'm even going to cover different kinds of diets pets can eat.

With all that research left to do, I can't recommend any specific brands of pet food right now. I just don't know enough.
But I can tell you this:

Choose pet food without the chemical preservatives BHA, BHT and ethoxyquin, vary cats’ diets to limit their exposure to mercury in seafood, and choose organic or free-range ingredients rather than “by-products.”

I'll keep revising my recommendations and getting more specific as I do my research. There's so much to find out! I hope you'll hang in there and learn along with me.

Wags,
Eddie
