Thanks for posting about the Wellness recall. I started using it for Luke in Dec and he does good with it. I checked the cans and looks as if it's ok because it didnt fall into the dates that were mentioned. I declare; it is frustrating to have problems with one thing or another. On the other hand, it's good and responsible that the Wellness company didnt try to cover it up. I'll stay with Wellness.. Kay in NC

KAK, we have a few cases left at my store that aren't recalled. If there's any flavors in particular you want, let me know and I can see what we have and set some aside.

I see no point in getting inflamed about this. Pet foods are made by human beings, so mistakes will be made from time to time. I, for one, am thankful that Wellness took prompt action and is doing what they can to make their error right.

My store got a fax from Wellness with all of the information right away so that we could keep our customers posted. Thanks to their quick action we were able to get all of the recalled product off of our shelves and get word out to our customers before much had been fed to their cats.

I took my cans back to my local Petsmart and they gave me full credit for them, no receipt needed. The helpful clerks told me that Blue Wilderness is close to Wellness in quality. I told them that I already fed Blue canned sometimes, but while both of my boys will eat Blue dry, Ming doesn't care for the canned. So, they showed me where Wellness had some pouched food that was not involved in the recall. I bought some of them and now to see if both boys will eat them.....

Thanks. I just may need to stop by to see what you have. I was able to return all of my cans to Pet Club and I got a cash refund. Before I did this though, I went to Pet Food Express and I bought one case of canned food and they had 4 flavors to choose from. I then showed them my receipts from Pet Club and they were able to match it plus they took an additonal 10% off so I was able to get each can for only $1.07. That's very close to Pet Clubs sale price of $1.01, their normal price is $1.19 per can. The lady then told me to keep my receipt and I can use this for a few months and I'll get the same discounted price.

Yes, I had already called both Petsmart and Petco and they told me that all they have in stock are the pouches. Hopefully all of the stores will be able to get new unrecalled shipments in by next month.
