  • Thanks. We gave him ten good years. He was found alone in the woods, only 10 weeks old. He was so thin and had Giardia. We got him cured but he needed a special diet his entire life, was often at the vet, which couldn’t do anything really. In the end, we needed to get him euthenazied. My first cat, first pet and I didn’t imagine I would care so much for a little creature.


  • He was the kind of cat that would sleep on your chest, he could play fetch, and he would come to the door when I was on my way out, and demanded to either be picked up or get me down on a knee (even though there were others at home) so he could do this weird and very cute thing where we kind of chewed on my nose while purring insanely.




  • Of course, you are right, omnivore. I still get my veggies, haha. My wife never became a vegetarian, and I’m the only vegetarian in our extended family, so I’m minority here and I didn’t really wanted to take the fight. Also, I try to hide the fact that I don’t eat industrial meat, from my kids. I don’t want to influence them in anyway, and if they ever want to become vegetarian, I hope it’s not because of my influence but because of their own reasons, if that makes sense.

    We have an overpopulation of red deer in our local area. I’m buying it from a local estate and they only have the stock they have. If a product is sold out, it’s sold out until the hunting season begins again. I actually don’t mind that in any way. I absolutely hate industrial farming, but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with regulation of wildlife, and it helps in preserving biodiversity.

    Tons of wildlife meat goes to waste each year in my country, and it’s instead used for other purposes, e.g. Fertilizer.

    Besides that, for those who want to eat meat, it’s seems illogical to me, not eating the meat we have at hand before starting to buy meat from industrial farms. I believe it tastes better in every way than what you get from industrial farms.


  • I’ve been vegetarian for almost 10 years, but then I got kids and we didn’t want to make separate dinner each night, so now I also eat wild game, e.g. pheasants, red deer, wild ducks, etc. Am I just a regular carnivore or does there exist a word for my weird ass choice?

    I still haven’t eating any meat from conventional or organic farms for more than 10 years.
