Many of you are convinced that pet food is done solely from the remains of carcasses of large animals that are already killed for humans. Alas, that’s not true. The animal ingredients used to make cat and dog food come mainly from the chicken and duck industry. In the case of hen used, the male chickens are separated after hatching and go to a macerator<\/em><\/strong>. In the case of duck used, the females are separated and travels to the macerator<\/strong><\/em> as well.

The smashed female ducks and male chicks become dog and cat food. You did not know, did you? When we buy cat food or dog food of animal origin, we pay the industry to kill female ducks and male chickens.<\/p>\n

In the United States, approximately 9 billion chickens are slaughtered every year just because they are males. In India, more than 180 million male chickens are killed<\/strong><\/em> annually. India’s egg industry grows at a rate of 8-12% per year and it is the third largest egg producer. Chickens are perhaps the most mistreated animals on the planet. Chickens are curious, interesting animals that are as intelligent as mammals like cats, dogs, and even some primates.<\/p>\n
