Why is BARF so
successful ?
Firstly, let’s
ask ourselves these questions :
“Can we eat fast food or canned food at every meal and still stay healthy ?”
NO… and
neither can our pet dogs and cats ! When we feed processed pet foods, that is
the SAME as us humans eating such unhealthy meals every single day.
“What about if we feed such pet food and then supplement with all sorts of
inorganic(synthetic) vitamins and minerals ?”
Whether such
supplements can be properly absorbed by humans and our pets’ bodies, is still
being debated by scientists today. But as humans, we do not eat this way and
neither should our pets. Why feed food that is severely deficient in nutrition,
that causes health problems and THEN ... try to rectify the resulting poor
health by feeding supplements ? Logically, shouldn't we be feeding food that is
nutritious and improves their health instead ?
For
thousands of years, our dogs and cats have thrived successfully by eating raw
meaty bones and kitchen scraps. In other words, these are the kinds of food that
their bodies have genetically adapted to, over thousands of years of evolution.
They didn’t used to have the skin, heart, kidney, dental, pancreatic diseases
and skeletal problems that we see today. Cancer, Hip & Elbow Dysplasia in
companion animals was hardly even heard of !!
Why ??
Simply because they never had to eat the commercially processed pet foods of
today with their chemical preservatives, artificial sources of vitamins and
minerals and that is cooked till their natural nutrients are either lost or
de-natured into a form that’s actually harmful in the longer term.

On the
other hand, the BARF diet is food that dogs and cats have evolved over many
millennia to eat, whether in the wild or while living side by side with their
human masters. It is the kind of food that has successfully kept them healthy,
enabled them to reproduce strong healthy offspring and ensured their survival as
a species till today. This is the hypothesis accepted by most modern zoos or any
zoologist concerned with preserving a species of endangered animal.

Look no
further than our very own Mandai Zoo. If the so-called scientifically researched
diets (with their added artificial vitamins and minerals) similar to commercial
processed pet food are really that good for the health of carnivores, don’t you
think that our zoo would be feeding them by now? After all, they are definitely
more convenient for our zoo and much cheaper.
Allow us
to reiterate : Our pet dogs and cats have been bred over the last few centuries
for their different looks, mindsets and behavioural
characteristics. They have NOT been bred to change their basic physiology i.e.
their digestive systems and nutritional requirements. Basically, BARF is NATURAL
food and it IS nature's way of how they've evolved to eat.
