It’s trivially obvious the website is a scam. The entire site is in all-caps, the UI is jank as hell, it just nonsensically repeats buzzwords all over the place with no rhyme or reason, it constantly references a single study that I can’t even verify exists, the reviews are so obviously fake it hurts because their English is just as broken as the website’s and they throw out the same buzzwords in the same manner, it’s full of unfounded superlatives like “the healthiest” and “the longest life”, and just in general, there is a complete lack of professionalism or coherency that I would expect from any reputable storefront, again let alone one which is trying to walk the fine line of selling vegan cat food. Even disregarding LW ToS rule 8.1 which that website unambiguously fails to meet, it’s our duty as vegans to reduce the suffering we cause for animals as far as possible, and that includes not leaving up – I emphasize – obvious links to scam sites for their food.

I did some digging, however, into the doctor that the scam website keeps referencing. It turns up this website which seems to actually have accredited professionals behind it and actually reads like coherent English written by a person not in the midst of psychosis. It also says it was founded in 1989, which is the same year the scam site claims to have been founded. Thus, I believe that the website linked to before was essentially trying to be a scam/bootleg version of petdiets.com, although to what end I’m unsure. Mystery ostensibly solved, @lunarul. petdiets.com doesn’t seem to actually sell their own cat food but rather seems to perform individualized consultations for pets.

The comment is staying deleted; your analogy makes no sense because it’s your cat’s health on the line here, not your own. This community does not and will not host links to scammers masquerading as veterinary nutritionists.
