You've probably seen news reports about the couple who fed their cat a vegetarian diet. Although I believe in individual rights, this couple took things too far. Cats are natural carnivores, which means they only eat meat. By changing this necessary part of a cat's diet, the couple caused serious health problems for the animal. Yes, it's true that meat-based commercial cat food can be expensive, but responsible pet owners must consider the costs before adopting a cat. Personal preferences about food should stay personal and not be inflicted on animals.

How would the author best respond to a counterclaim that raising animals to be used as cat food is cruel?

A. By showing how pet owners can save money on cat food

B. By explaining that without commercial cat food, farmers would lose their jobs C. By illustrating how animals in the wild are often carnivores

D. By suggesting that cats be allowed to hunt for their own food

I believe the best response to a counterclaim that raising animals to be used as cat food is cruel is:

C. By illustrating how animals in the wild are often carnivores.

Explanation:

The author is defending that human owners should not impose a vegan diet on their cats, since cats are naturally carnivores. That means their bodies truly need meat to function properly, and imposing a different diet causes health problems, which is basically cruelty.

People may present as a counterclaim the idea that raising animals to be used as cat food is cruel. That's a valid notion, but the author could easily respond to it by keeping to his explanation of what is and isn't natural. Before being domesticated, cats lived in the wild. Therefore, they hunted and killed other animals to feed themselves. Now that they have been domesticated, they depend on their owners to be fed. Since they are still carnivores - that hasn't changed - it is the owners obligation to provide them with what they need. Cats that have owners do not go out to hunt for their own food. They count on their owners to feed them. So, even if it sounds cruel, it is up to us humans to make the cat food that will serve its purpose properly by having meat in it.

How to prevent onions from making you cry chill the onions in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before peeling or chopping them. sulfuric vapors move slower in the cold—think about how garbage smells worse during hot weather. leave the onion root intact until the last possible moment to prevent irritants from escaping into the air. the root contains the largest concentration of sulfuric compounds in an onion. chop or cut the onion with a sharp knife. fast, clean slicing puts less pressure on the onion tissue and minimizes the release of sulfuric compounds. a sharp knife also allows you to expedite your slicing and reduce your exposure to the onion fumes. open a window or light a scented candle close to your chopping station. the hot flame of a candle will attract tear-causing vapor and will reduce the amount of vapor circulating in the air. what can be done to these instructions to make them easier to read at a glance? deleting everything except the first sentences of each numbered step eliminating the numbers and using bullets using illustrations instead of text changing nothing

Abig total of my last 30 points and brainliest for if u go to my previous questions u can awnser the 100 pointers think of an intense argument you had or witnessed sometime in your life. close your eyes and remember every detail. to turn this into a dramatic scene you will need to make changes that will make it make more sense to the audience. 500-600 words a description of the set up that explains what happened before the scene diction that matches the characters character objectives and obstacles are clearly conveyed a scene that escalates in dramatic intensity diction that is appropriate to the audience words that are not wasted in idle chit chat action (stage directions) that enhance the scene proper formatting for drama
