Any Vegetarians/Vegans here?

No I am not a vet, but trust me I am more qualified than a vet!

Um, trust me no you aren't.

In fact the very statement you just made is akin to saying you're more qualified than a physician to provide me with medical advice.

• Why Your Cat Can't Process Carbohydrates
  Another indicator your cat is designed to eat meat and not carbohydrates is that her body doesn't produce the enzymes needed to digest carbs.
  
  The only carbs cats in the wild eat are already digested by their prey. When a wild feline eats a prey animal, the stomach contents of the prey contain a certain amount of already digested carbohydrates.
  
  Your cat's digestive system isn't designed to break down vegetables to release the nutrients they provide.
  
  Omnivores and herbivores have slower digestion, but food passes quickly (within hours) through the GI tract of an obligate carnivore. That's why your kitty is built to eat relatively small amounts of highly digestible, energy packed food that provides optimal levels of vitamins, minerals and micronutrients. In other words, animal meat.
  
  Veggies just don't fill the bill when it comes to feline nourishment.

• A two-year research project conducted at the Waltham Centre for Pet Nutrition in Leicestershire, England indicates that healthy pet cats regulate their nutrient intake to mimic what they would eat in the wild.
  
  The study demonstrated kitties have a daily calorie ‘intake target’ that is equal to 52 percent protein, 36 percent fat and 12 percent carbohydrate.

And FYI I already covered the scientific reasons why cats need to eat meat - and not just that but certain types of meat.
