In response to the discussion on vegetarian pets, I recently came
across an article in Vegetarian Voice.  I include a reprint below in 
its entirety, FYI.  (No opinions included.)


			CATS GO VEGIE

	Good News!  Vegetarians and Vegans who have agonized over feeding 
their cats animal products may now have an acceptable solution.  VEGECAT, 
a purely vegetarian supplement for cats, has been developed by 'Harbingers 
of a New Age'.
	Scientific studies to determine cats' dietary needs have indicated that 
they require certain nutrients which are not readily available from plant 
foods.  Blindness and other health problems are a likely result from diets 
deficient in these nutrients.
	Barbara Peden, a representative of Harbingers, notes that VEGECAT was 
a result of researching her book Dogs and Cats Go Vegetarian.  They carefully
			         ____________________________
formulated this product to meet the special needs of our feline friends.
	Vegetarian Voice recently spoke with Barbara about this breakthrough 
product.  Even though she noted that this supplement has been in use for only a 
short time, she feels very confident that their thorough research has resulted
in a supplement that will enable cat owners to safely feed their feline 
companions without animal products.
	For more information about VEGECAT and to order Barbara's book ($3.95
+ $.75 shipping) write 'Harbingers of a New Age', 06784 Canary Road, Westlake,
Oregon, 97493.
