Your Cat's Vomiting Is Telling You Something About Their Food

What happens when a vet student feeds their snake a species-appropriate diet but gives their cat kibble? "I'm not sure, but that's what I do" is the unsettling answer that encapsulates everything wrong with conventional veterinary education today.

DeDe Murcer Moffett and Dr. Judy Jasek, DVM dive deep into the world of feline nutrition, examining why cats are suffering from preventable digestive issues when the solution is staring us right in the face. Through the case of Onyx, a two-year-old cat with chronic regurgitation, they demonstrate how veterinarians often recommend expensive diagnostic testing and prescription diets instead of addressing the fundamental problem – cats simply aren't designed to eat processed kibble.

The conversation explores Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) and how conventional medications, surgeries, and carbohydrate-heavy diets disrupt the delicate digestive balance of obligate carnivores. Dr. Jasik shares practical advice for transitioning kibble-addicted cats to species-appropriate raw diets, acknowledging the challenges while offering solutions that work. She explains why cats on processed foods become "borderline diabetics," stuck on a blood sugar roller coaster that makes transitioning difficult but necessary.

Perhaps most profoundly, the discussion touches on Rudolf Steiner's perspective that all animal diseases ultimately stem from human intervention – a sobering reminder that our pets' health problems often begin with the environments and diets we create for them. For anyone struggling with a cat's digestive issues or simply wanting to provide optimal nutrition, this episode offers both the scientific rationale and practical steps to make meaningful changes.
