However, simply buying organic processed products does not solve the underlying problem in modern pet feeding - the steady consumption of singular processed foods. We may avoid some toxins by using organic foods, but then introduce more through the effects of processing.
Moreover, some people will purchase a pet food just because it is organic with no consideration for the fact that the ingredients it contains are not natural foods for a carnivore, is enzyme devoid, contains no probiotics or nutraceuticals, and is not made with technologies needed to make a processed food safe and healthy. It doesn't matter whether the label claims it is "complete." These deficits plus the inability of anyone to really know what complete is, make it not so.
By focusing on singular features in processed foods - the presence of a certain ingredient, the absence of another, or organic - the critical rules in achieving the best pet food are missed: variety, rotation, rawness, natural wholeness, and intelligent supplementation.
Don't get into the lazy (unhealthy) mode of thinking that all that needs to be done is to find that ONE special food and then your work is done.

A very passive cat shares his meal with a seagull, but ends up losing more than he had planned...
Thought for the day: If you think modern medicine is the route to health, consider that Less than 15% of medical interventions are supported by reliable scientific evidence.
Phrase for the day: 'free range' - a method of farming husbandry where the animals are allowed access out of doors and the ability to roam freely. This is a good idea for two reasons, it is more humane and it is more healthy - both for the food animal and for the eater.
