Reported Deaths - Update Post #15 Page 1 (Cats More Effected)

[anna_66]

Working like I do, this has really got me questioning leaving mine at home alone now.. They have 2 people checking in on them but there is nobody to observe or notice any strange behavior.. I feed mine Science Diet dry and Mike did some investigating and Science Diet does not make the food themselves in a plant of their own. He is switing his to Royal Canin who does make their own... But it is like I told him, how do we know anytime what is going in these foods we feed our little sweethearts at any of these places?

Precisely why I am SO glad I feed mine raw.

This whole thing is just so sad

It is very sad, and a little confusing.
If all that food was contaminated you would think that there would be a lot more than 16 Pet Deaths.
I wonder though how many Pets passed on, and was thought to be natural causes before all this came out.
Its a shock to me that these huge Pet Food Companies are not making thier own food.A DISGRACE really.
Running shoes and other consumer products are one thing.
Food we feed Our Beloved Companions another thing all together.

It is very sad indeed.

My mom and I were talking about if either one of us had fed the tainted food to any of ours (we have 18 cats between the two of us) we probally would have lost all of them, and if we did not loose them all then we would have probally had each and everyone of them at the vets office.

My brother-in-laws aunt has a "cat colony" with just about 80 cats that her and her husband take care of....she lost 12 of her cats to this recall...and she is totally devestated.
