Hey, Laurie, in the wild, dogs will often eat half-rotted meat that's left over from the big-time predators' kills. Old meat is easier for them to digest. So meat off a ten-day-old chicken would be quite a treat. Call that hate?
Actually, I'm just all defensive because I've been trying so hard to do right by my beasts for the last six months or so. Every two weeks I remove the meat from chicken quarters, carefully chunk it, grind the bones along with heart, liver, and skin, and then mix everything with organic egg yolks to make my cat food. My dogs get eggs and raw meat, for now, on an extremely expensive and wholesome kibble but soon exclusively. As much as I can afford it, I buy my raw materials from the local organic farm. Hell, my animals' food is tastier and healthier than my own.
And in any case cats really don't need anything but protein, so all those veggies are just a fancy form of roughage. So there.
Yes, I am somewhat loony. Why?
