Break Your Little Carnivores

by matrix_fan

I am writing this article in response to the one by ilocandy. It explained how to make your pet a vegetarian. This was very helpful, as now all of my pets are proud vegetarians. I slowly 'broke' them from the habits of carnivores. Read on to see the steps!

1) You should always feed your pet until he/she is at least satiated. This means you have to feed them several times a week. Start of with a mixed diet, some meats and add in a few fruits or vegetables (if you allow them to eat breads, milk, and eggs, add these in as well).

2) The next time you feed them that week, cut back on the meat a bit. This is when I cut back on the bread and sweets (my pets only get sweets occasionally).

3) Keep cutting back, until you have them on a full vegetarian diet. This slow process lets them adjust to their new meatless diet, and may help them from getting an illness.

My pets now eat only Organic Food, Vegetarian Food (Veggie Sausage, Vegan Cheese, etc.), and miscellaneous fruits and vegetables. This may not seem like a lot, but their is a lot! Especially fruits, where there are 'regular' fruits, as well as Mystery Island and Tyrannian types. If you have them on an eggless and milkless diet, do not be tempted to feed them Tigersquash or TeaLeef Sandwiches, either! Although they have fruit, you can never be sure if milk and/or eggs have been used in the bread. Some more things I have become aware of are Banana Grubs, and Banana and Raspberry Milkshakes. Do not let their name fool you :)

I try not to let my pets have much chocolate either, since it contains milk. They do get Cherries Jubilee and Chia Pops sometimes. Of course they don't eat the changing ones, but more like the Splime Chia Pops, made of Spinach and Lime.

Hopefully this helped you a bit in helping your pet become a vegetarian :)
