Pet Food Recall
I just dropped off one of my kitties, Petey, to the vet for the morning. Both of my kitties had blood work done on Tuesday and his came back with some questionable values (one value was on the top end of normal, nothing alarming but worth investigating further), so I dropped him off so they can try to get a urine sample from him (they set him up with special non-absorbant litter, some special food and water and let nature take its course -- we were not able to stay home during the week to get a sample ourselves).
We kept the remaining cans of Iams tuna flakes in sauce and the receipt. My understanding from what I've read online (which may or may not be accurate) is that reimbursement of vet bills will be made to those affected animals' owners. Hopefully the high value is due to age (he's 9 and in good health otherwise). We will still submit the required information/documentation for reimbursement as if not for the poison in the food, these bills would not have been incurred.
Like other forum members mentioned earlier in this thread, it's frustrating that we've paid extra for a premium brand only to find that it makes no difference in quality -- it seems that the same ingredients are used in many brands.
