A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Cats, even domesticated species, are still obligate carnivores, as in they will die of malnutrition eventually if they are put on a non-meat diet.

They 100% need to eat meat to survive. Vegan cat food will kill them slowly as they can't properly process the proteins in plants.

Outdated information. We recently invented synthetic taurine and solved that problem.

OK, yes, you are correct and I had not looked at the comparison study. Very cool! Ty.
