aside from the moral implications of what we feed our animals, there are very valid health concerns related to many of the lesser-known ingredients in common pet foods.
a short list of *some* of the "caring" ingredients in pet foods:
ligaments
fat trimmings
bones
blood
pesticides
rubber
plastic shavings
spoiled meat
styrofoam
cats, dogs, and their flea collars
pentobarbital (the poison designed to kill cats and dogs, left from the euthanized cats and dogs in the pet food)
industrial lubricant
sick, diseased, dying, disabled and dead animals
slaughterhouse leftovers
livestock antibiotics
hormones
toxic heavy metals like lead and mercury
moldy grains
fecal matter (poop)
unborn babies
tumors
feathers
and much, much more...
