    Remember last month, that big story on the tainted pet food that had killed thousands of American pets? Well this morning I took my cat in, we just got a call a couple hours ago, it was kidney faillure, then I remembered the pet food recall and looked it all up. I found the recall list and found our cat food was on the list and that all these pets were largely dying from kidney failure. My cat just died because of some F*ck up in China. We just had her put down. Both my cats have died within the last 8 days. :no1: I urge you guys to look here and make sure your animal food is not on the list. If only I would have known.http://www.fda.gov/oc/opacom/hottopics/petfood.html

    That really sucks about your cat. Thats alotve different brands up there, hopefully this will get out more so people can stop feeding their pets this. I didnt see my dogs food there, but I did see some stuff I probably wouldve bought for my dog.

    Dude that sucksss...I'm sorry about your two cats.My friend's dog actually died of kidney failure...two weeks after his passing, they got a letter from Costco (its a supermarket) saying that they've noticed that they've sold a bad brand of food to their family and they were sorry for anything this may have caused. Unfortunately, it was the cause of my friends dog's death.

    Pets are a waste anyway.Why'd you feed your cat that before checking the list BCB? Everyone knows about the food problem, it's common sense to look up foods b4 buying them.

    Sorry to hear about your cat. Maybe there's a lawsuit in there somewhere.
