It’s been months since the first poison cat food deaths- I’ve had 6 cats die, now my 7th who didn’t eat as much of the same tainted food I know killed my other cats, but did eat it, is now showing signs of being sick.

I want to know what is going on now w/ people and their cats. Anyone in the same boat- still being affected by the tainted poison cat food?? Urgent.

My last cat death was 7/24/07.

the chemical they found does cause renal failure. It is not the same chemicals used in rat poisions you purchase in the US (like the hardware or farm store outlet)

I am starting to think this is a terrorist attack also. I am terrified. Rat poison wouldn’t cause Renal Failure. Something is very very wrong.

GordonH, that is certainly a question I have had since day one. What if?? Well, we would not be posting most likely. It is quite clear the the FDA is asleep at the wheel here. It could have been sooooo easy to deliver tainted “pet” food quality grains and products as there is no inspection of these foods. Human inported food is only screened 2% of the time. So here we have the fox guarding the hen house. The system has failed and it is past time to step up and get something done. I strongly urge you to contact your US Senators and Congressional members. Demand accountability for the FDA. We need to insist that steps are taken to insure the pet food industry is regulated as it should be and that quality controls are in place. Please take the time, write, call, e-mail or fax your US Senators, give our pets a voice in the matter. It is important you do this now, as soon this will all be history. Give our beloved pets the voice they deserve.

Here’s something that crossed my mind…

What if this was a test run by terrorists to see if they could get poison into the food chain by first trying the pet food supply?
