Thank you for your research, Carrie, but you're right: These are really bad news!
Yes, I've heard a lot about the problems the UK had with BSE, and now many people over here see the same coming to Germany.
OMG, 87 FSE cases in domestic cats seems to be a lot to me!
What I'd really like to know is if there is any beef in the cat food - even when the can is labelled with fish or chicken. I remember I once read that the food isn't made 100% percent of the kind of meat that's on the label, so I think I can never be sure if there isn't beef in it.
