Here is the link.... http://www.itchmo.com/menu-foods-recall-fact-sheet
An if you could...sign this petition for their accountibility... http://www.itchmo.com/petfoodpetition/
I am sooo upset by this......  And it seems as though they keep adding more and more to thr recall list. Anything to do with Menu foods....is done at here at my house...including the dry food. I am willing to bet that they start recalling that soon too....
Wonder what will be next.....maybe our own human food too...ugh.... |
I think we know what will be next: "Del Monte Foods has confirmed that the melamine-tainted wheat gluten used in several of its recalled pet food products was supplied as a "food grade" additive, raising the likelihood that contaminated wheat gluten might have entered the human food supply.""
Mandy, thanks for posting that link. I am sooo disgusted by all of this. I cannot believe that these will be the last of the recalls. That link is very informative. It is so scary to think what could or can happen to our babies.. And then hearing that the companies may have had complaints as early as December is *#(#%*%&$!! A friend of mine lost a puppy beagle around that time and no vets could figure out what was wrong with him. He was at the university several times. He died. I believe they fed iams. Both of my older dogs were on some of the recalled product so far no signs of illness but I need to know!!We are going to have complete bloodwork done on them to see if there are any signs of impending illness, so far, no signs, but who knows.
This stinks it really does, and I smell cover ups too.
With every gray cloud comes a silver lining. I do believe this crisis has helped many pet owners to become better informed about what we are as well as will be feeding our babies. More research is being done, people are seeking out information about what really goes into pet food, and as more informed consumers demand it, information will hopefully be more readily available as to EXACTLY what ingredients go into our pets foods. And maybe, just maybe, we can get the pet food industry regulated in the same manner as the "human" food industry is. Just my thoughts
