It sounds to me like she was more interested in getting her name in print than caring what she says & how it can affect people that are grieving the loss of their pets. Saying that the saboteur and the murderous poisoner are scapegoats? Wow that is amazing! Im just dumb-founded that a science journalism professor could come up with such garbage! She better hope they dont find it was sabatoge, she might have to eat her crappy news article she wrote. I cant believe her article!

The jury is still out on what the cause is, so she is jumping the gun a bit here.

We spend thousands of dollars to protect and maintain the health and welfare of our beloved animals; we pay top dollar to feed them what we believe is the highest-quality food available and are betrayed by the very industry we're supporting - and she dares to lay the blame for their horrific and painful deaths on our doorstep!?
