Gadzoooks! Never fear, Luke. Rain is mostly a vegetarian, and she certainly wouldn't eat Long Pig, as the cannibals used to call their sometime feasts.....having said that, however, IMHO there are, in this world today, far too many stray cats and dogs alive, and folk are not wanting to humanely kill them, so are building larger and larger pounds in which to "store" them. The pet food industry is immense, while on the other hand, children all over the world, including America, north and south, are starving, and other folk(or perhaps the same ones)are urging all and sundry to drop in on a web site once a day to donate food! I know some people with 4 dogs! " They are our family!" Sheesh! Time for me to post another recipe! Cheers, Doug in BC
