We have two cases so far here in British Columbia, Canada. It hasn't been confirmed whether or not it was tainted food that made the cats sick. Poor kitties.

KAMLOOPS (NEWS1130) - A veterinarian in Kamloops believes two cats have now suffered kidney failure because of tainted food involved in the massive recall.
Doctor Diane McKelvey says thankfully, both felines are expected to survive.
"These two cats have been on that food. We treated them with I.V fluids, one has recovered quite well and has just gone home. The other will be in the hospital for a few days."
She says it is extremely important to diagnosis kidney disease as soon as possible so animals can receive the proper fluids to survive.
The frantic search continues for what exactly is in the food that has killed 14 pets in North America.
Vets are urging pet owners to remain calm and check their pet's food labels against the list of brands recalled on the website menu-foods-dot-com.
If you're concerned your pet may have eaten tainted food, keep an eye out for any behavioral changes.
