Just bought some Wal-Mart brand cat food, on the lable it says garlic is an ingredient and claims garlic is a "nutritious" vegetable. I've read numerous times how toxic garlic is to pets, cats especially. Is it safe to feed pet food with garlic to my cats? More importantly, isn't claiming garlic to be "nutritious" misleading packaging/false advertising?

Being that it's walmart you may not want to feed it. Probably some chink brand of food. But I imagine it would have been recalled by now if it killed anything.

Thanks so much for your attached photo! I'm working on transitioning them to raw this year. The ingredients are:

"Chicken meal, brown rice, dehulled barley, rye, chicken fat (stabilized mixed tocopherols), chicken, millet, oat meal, natural flavour, tomatoes, whole dried egg, salmon meal, salmon oil, cranberries, alfalfa, spinach, broccoli, sweet potatoes, apple, blueberries, pears, bananas, phosphoric acid, brewers yeast, dl-methionine, taurine, calcium sulphate, salt, inulin, vitamins and minerals (Vitamin E, Vitamin C, niacin, inositol, Vitamin A, thiamine mononitrate, d-calcium pantothenate, pyridoxine hydrochloride, riboflavin, vitamin k, beta-carotene, Vitamin D3, folic acid, biotin, Vitamin B12, zinc proteinate, ferrous sulfate, zinc oxide, iron proteinate, copper sulfate, copper proteinate, manganese proteinate, manganous oxide, calcium iodate, sodium selenite), yucca schidigera, cinnamon, turmeric, capsicum, chamomile, dandelion, paprika, garlic, rosemary extract"

Someone could probably sue them for claiming garlic is "nutritious". Thanks for your help

Wow. Even Friskies is better than that. What brand is that?

probably in such small amounts it won't affect anything

Why does my grandma's cat do that to me? I give it pets and it looks like it's enjoying it but then it bites the shit out of me.

I see "garlic" in nearly every brand of cheap cat/dog food here. You need to understand the source of many ingredients in cheap foods. It isn't there for their health. It is there because it is stuff that people don't want in their food, even their cheap ass food. For whatever reason it didn't pass the quality tests and ends up in pet food. It isn't harmful to humans, that isn't the reason it gets passed on to petfood. However, it is still an industrial farm waste and the people who have it want to sell it to anyone who will take it.

Now, put on your tinfoil hat for the next part.

We all know that no company can be trusted right? There's far too much historical data about companies lying to their customers about the healthiness of their products. There's also historical evidence about companies lobbying government policy to get things changed in their favor. There's historical evidence companies use grass roots campaigns to sway public opinion & health profession opinion on something even if the information is a complete lie. I'm not even going to go into the illegal activity (tons of historical evidence on that stuff too). Given these truths, how many "blogs" would you need to read to figure out the "truth" behind garlic in pet food?

When in doubt, leave it out.

It's trying to get its scent on you I think, I don't know exactly but it's showing affection.

I noticed my two cats will bite each other without trying to draw blood or inflict pain. My dad's cat will be purring and then switch to biting and scratching my hands and it looks a lot like what my cats do to each other. My theory is that they're just trying to play or something and that it's a sign of affection when cats bite like that.
