    Do cats need carbs?

    This one is for cat lovers :cat: Recently a stray cat brought kittens to our house so we're now in charge of feeding four cats. So I'm wondering, do cats need carbohydrates and what type would be best for them? I know they officially don't, or at least not much, but I recall Ray once saying...

    Has Anyone Ever Actually Heard Dr Peat Recommend A High Carb Diet?

    Has anyone ever actually heard Dr Peat recommend a high carb diet? The only time I've ever heard him questioned about optimal macro ratios, he said he doesn't know, and that 33/33/33 might be good. That's hardly high carb. In fact, the only time I've heard him use the words "high carb," is when...
