Where to Find Vegan, Vegetarian Dog and Cat Food

Going vegan or vegetarian isn't just for humans anymore. Nowadays more people are following a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle and they are having their dogs and cats do the same.

What exactly is the difference between vegan and vegetarian?

Vegan is a stricter version of being vegetarian. Being vegan means you only eat products that are plant life. Vegans do not eat dairy, meat, fish, honey, eggs and anything else that has an animal origin.
