she LOVES the green monster... so now i'm going to have to start making my own TOYS now??? this is too much!

Thanks for informing us on this, I also read another post there at the site above.


this is very concerning to us.

ExperTox, a Texas lab, found acetaminophen (a fifth possible contaminant) in at least five samples of pet food that were submitted by pet owners and pet manufacturers. The medication was mostly found with cyanuric acid, and hundreds of other samples that were sent in tested positive for melamine. The contaminants were found in pet foods that have not been recalled.

ExperTox said that the highest level of acetaminophen was found in a dog food sample submitted by a pet food manufacturer, but the lab is not identifying the company. The FDA is now investigating the findings from the lab and a FDA spokesperson says that: “what’s significant is these things are there. They don’t belong there.”

The article also mentions Don Earl and how he tested his cat’s food and found acetaminophen and cyanuric acid in it. His cat, Chuckles, was eating Pet Pride cat food and died in January. Many Itchmo readers may already be familiar with Don’s story and his website.

We ask why doesn't the Lab identify the company that is putting this in the dog foods?????? It is well known that Acetaminophen is hard on the liver!!!!!

The FDA is now investigating the findings from the lab and a FDA spokesperson says that: “what’s significant is these things are there. They don’t belong there.”

Why doesn't the FDA recall those foods containing this?????? Which dog foods contain these????? We sure don't want ours eating it!
