When animals are very dependent on their human companions, they tend to imitate their often stupid behaviour. Just like kids.
Hobby, we're not arguing, and I obviously didn't think you'd poison cats or anything, I just felt like explaining the reason of my long postings.
Somsak, thanks for the contribution, I think Japanese food is actually very healthy. About whale-hunting, difficult item. I agree that whales would be better off left alone, but as a matter of fact not all whales risk extinction, whereas some other species no one talks about do, and for similar reasons (humans eating them). Pescatarian diet (or itto-vegetarian, like we normally say in Italy) is basically vegetarian diet + fish, Joy. I agree that's the best diet. As long as fish comes from the sea, and not from farming. I started being a vegetarian 15 years ago, but I interrupted my vegetarianism with some pescatarian periods. Nowadays I still can't decide what's best for me, but I am sure I couldn't live as a vegan, especially in such a hot place like Thailand. Even being vegetarian doesn't help my body stand the heat here, which is why I tend to consider pescatarian the best feasible diet (or the lesser evil).
