My partner and I have recently decided that we want to feed our cats a mixture of vegan cat biscuits and some kind of meat (simply for the taurine).
Unfortunately I don't know anywhere besides online to order biscuits and was hoping someone would know of anywhere around Melbourne or SE suburbs to buy some from a store. I can always order online, but would rather buy from a store as shipping is seeming to be pricey because of the weight, obviously.
I also wanted to know some opinions on what would be best for their meat. The thought of buying meat makes me so upset, but I don't want our cats to be deficient in anything. So I'm finding it hard to decide what would be good for them, and less bad for other animals.

I have been feeding my cat VeganPet dry food and the wet food or meat I give her is fish. She's supposed to be on a diet but everyone keeps sneaking her snacks! UGH!
Anyway, I got the vegan pet food from the Cruelty Free Shop in Glebe, NSW. They have an online store, however you might be able to find this brand of pet food closer to you. I think I recall The Cruelty Free Shop also selling biscuits, or snack type foods as well.

I know shipping will be a problem, but you can always check out the brand on their site http://crueltyfreeshop.com.au/ and search for it locally.

Good luck!

BTW, I feed my cat fish because, although it does upset me, I can buy 'sustainable' fish, and it is a lot healthier than that crap from a can (Dine, Whiskers, etc)

Thank you so much for the link for suppliers!! ^__^
The nearest one is about an hour and a half a way which sucks but is still a hell of a lot better than paying the same price of the product in postage.

The Cruelty Free Shop was where I was looking at buying if I couldn't find any shops down here that sell some as I need to get some vegan cheese for my fiancee too.

Thanks again!
