tainted pet food

[plonq]

This pet food scandal just gets worse with each telling. First, the manufacturer apparently knew there was something wrong with it a month before they went public. "Gee, our test animals are dying after eating this stuff. The animals must be defective or something..."

Now they're saying that they're not entirely sure of the scope of the problem - it could extend outside the dates they listed.

Oh -- and apparently the source of the taint is rat poison. The cheap wheat they imported from China (because we have such a severe shortage of wheat in North America) was laden with a banned rodenticide.

I wonder if I can get in on the class action lawsuit even if I didn't have to take my cats to he vet? They both ate tainted western family cuts n gravy and both threw up. I only fed it to them like 2 or 3 times during the bad food period and then switched them back to friskies.

The cats are OK, they're eating, but this makes me FUME because they probably cut a year or two of life off both of my animals.
