Another Worry ~ Pet Food Recall
It may be up to owners to police pet food because, according to the lab manager, no one from the FDA has investigated their positive findings. In fact, to date not a single government inspector has asked to look at one of the tainted pet food samples tested in this laboratory.
It's hard not to feel the FDA just doesn't care very much about our pets. Especially in light of the following.
The lab would not name the type of food contaminated or the company that distributes it but said the company is not among the 150 others involved in the pet food recalls over the past three months.
So there is an unknown pet food on store shelves and in our pantries that is contaminated and could kill our pet, and we don't have the right to know.
Just one little acetaminophen pill is enough to kill a cat. But according to the lab, this drug was found in at least a half dozen pet food samples.
I am so scared of losing my surviving cat and the new kittens. It's outrageous that a company knows it's product is contaminated but doesn't have the decency to recall it's product so innocent pets won't die needlessly.
