DoggyGal... make sure you check your wikiFidoGal emailbox.
I took the liberity on our small group of copying a few sources verbatim .... normally I cite extensively however this is time to get the word out quickly! I have some great links for you to post here. The death toll so far is climbing to over a thousand of cats and dogs. Ignore the Menu Foods saying only 16 so far. They also included the deaths of the animals they tested that died in that figure. One positive my husband pointed out aptly... out of this we pray that all dog foods canned and dry will be safe. Surely to goodness this got the attention of the companies. ETNPat

I just found out through the Safe Pet Food blog that one of the top non-wheat premium pet foods has a program for shelters, rescuers, breeders, and kennels (cats and dogs). This is very good news for people who are responsible for the safety of large numbers of cats and dogs. There is info at http://safepetfood.wordpress.com

Menu Foods Class Action
Description This group is for pet owners that have lost a pet, or their pet became ill due to renal (kidney) failure from eating Menu Foods cat or dog food. You can access this group directly by going to: www.MenuFoodsClassActionLawsuit.com Check the website: http://www.menufoods.com/recall to see if you have fed some bad food to your pet. If your pet has died, try to do the following: - Save the food package - Save your receipt from where you purchased the food - Save any vet bills - Save any burial bills - Find a picture from when your pet was alive - Take a picture of your deceased pet - Journal the loss of your pet (pain & suffering) - Some have suggested to have a necropsy done on your deceased pet I know that some of the requests above are odd. But we need to hold Menu Foods accountable for their actions. Signs of renal (kidney) failure - Increased water consumption - Increased urination - Loss of appetite - Depression - Vomiting - Diarrhea - Bad breath - Eating cat litter or sand Treatment - Request that your vet do blood work and check the kidney levels - Put your pet on IV fluids (a vet can send you home with an IV kit to DIY) - Feed them renal pet food (force feed with a giant syringe if needed) - Give kidney medication *Note: I am not a vet or attorney. I am doing this because my good friend's cat passed away due to renal failure from eating tainted food. This group will eventually be turned over to a class action attorney once there is enough people coming forward. |
