MenuFoods and the other pet food companies are dancing, with great glee, on the GRAVES OF OUR DEAD PETS!

And they are planning to dance on the graves of those pets still suffering and dying.

DON”T LET THEM SLEAZE THEIR WAY OUT OF THIS!!

OPT OUT of this settlement and get the lying pet food companies in front of a jury!
The pet food companies won’t know what hit ‘em once a jury hits them smack in the profits for selling roadkill, rendered down dead pets and expired drugs as “premium” pet food.

Once people hear about the lies and intimidation and delays and all the reprehensible underhanded things that the pet food companies have done, including hiring people to come onto pet forums and lie for them and harassing grieving pet owners, 24 MILLION is what ONE lawsuit could get from a jury.

Take ENOUGH money away from these poisoners and get ENOUGH light beaming down on these cockroaches so there will be changes made.

A lot of crappy disgusting things have been inflicted on pet owners with poisoned pets, these last 18 months.
It is hight time to inflict pain on the poisoners.

Really don’t buy commercial pet food! Forget those “prescription diet” formulas the vets are pushing.

See: www.rawdogranch.com

for dogs

www.catnutrition.org

for cats

Unfortunately because there is no regulation of the pet food industry — and no inspection about the many species-inappropriate (not to mention contaminated) ingredients in pet food, the industry cannot be trusted to do the right thing. Their goal is profits NOT healthy pet food.

My cats and my vet started the pet food recall in 2007. I lost 3 cats. DO NOT but food from the grocerie store. Solid Gold, Life Abundance, Canidae, Evangers, wonderful human grade ingrediants and none of theses foods were affected by the pet food recall. For those of you who need prescription foods, Wysong carries an entire line which your vet can order for you. No Science Diet. Dont buy it.

I also bought Beneful a year ago and my dogs loved it. But I just bought it again 2 weeks ago and my dogs wont touch it. I had lost a Chow Chow Feb 2007 from the dog food recall, her kidneys failed but before they did she suffered for weeks, the vet said it would be best to put her down. Now I just read that some one eles has recently had problems with the Beneful dog food. Im scared to death to lose another pet. Does anyone know more about this food.

I am trying to find out how to register for a Canadian Settlement. Menu Foods already paid out a claim to my Vets Office in April and May of 2007 for my Kitties because of them eating Royal Canin bought at the Vets. One of them was severely affected. This one now has residual kidney function and now it turns out since then digestive problems — diarreahha and not getting very much nutrient value from the food. I also have to buy special food due to food sensitivities. Menu Foods only paid for the initial up front costs and I have been paying all the rest. We are regular visitors to the Vet. My poor baby is on pills daily and now is on needles. The Vet and I agree that Menu Foods is responsible and should be paying this bill. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You.

I have had pets all my life. Many dogs, over the years. We have never had food problems before.
We currently have two dogs, a Lab and a Rotweiller. We have been feeding them Beneful for the past few years without any problems.
In March, 2008, the Rot was suddenly sick, lethargic, no appetite, drank a lot of water, ate dirt, and had diarrhea. The Lab refused to eat the dry food at all, even after my wife tried mixing in table scraps. Turns out she is a very smart dog.
I changed their diet to fresh cooked chicken and hamburger, rice and some veggies. The Rot immediately started to improve and had more energy. My wife again gave him the dry food for a day and he went back down. This time, he is not coming back out of it.
My wife’s parents also used Beneful, purchased from the same store, for their Doberman. She has been devastated by this food. She can hardly stand anymore and has to be helped outside.
All the symptoms sound just like the problems from 1.5 years ago with canned food that included the wheat gluten and melamine.
