Hello,

I have coresponded in this forum with a couple responses. I think I have offered very valuable information with helpful solutions to this dilemna of what is really in so many pet foods.

I cannot see my responses and wonder where they are. Please advise.

Thank you,

Kitty

Kitty,
Yes, I have Life’s Abundance for my cats. They like it alot. I must take one cat off of it for awhile only because he is allergic to something, so my vet is working with me to find the cause. It’s not the food, it’s him. Their isn’t anything wrong with that food. If you decide to get some, I think you’ll be happy with it. My kitties sure are. Hope yours like it! ( If you get some)

Kitty:

In case you aren’t aware, Menu does their canned food so that’s one good reason not to use their canned. Dry is made by Ohio Products…..don’t know anything about them but nothing was recalled that they manufactured. Dry ingredients look pretty good. Anyone else tried this Life’s Abundance?

Thanks again Pukanuba. Looked at Natura website. Nearest store is between 8 and 15 miles where I can buy Ennova.

Mrs. P:

Take a look at Felidae or the Natura products (Evo, Innova, Karma) for cats. I don’t have a cat but I use Canidae (the doggy version of Felidae) & I’m very happy with it. Natura’s products I feel are pretty safe……other people talk about different premium foods that they’ve had good luck with. If you go to either the pet food list or Itchmo Forums, you can get tons of great info.

Thanks, Pukanuba, for the info. The vet I go to is helping me with home made food for both cats. LadyCat requires less meat protein than LittleCat. I am still using the Wellness dry which tested negative. When it’s gone I don’t know what I’ll do. I just don’t want anyone to use that “P” brand of food. They are horrible! I will check out petfoodtracker. Thanks again!

Mrs. P:

You should go to pet food tracker & read what others are saying about certain pet foods to see if there are any other complaints. Also, Itchmo Forums has a lot of different threads about food making animals sick. It doesn’t matter whether one person or one hundred complained, the large PF companies will not own up to the fact that their food is crap & contaminated with who knows what. You can’t depend on much when it comes to these criminals but you can depend on them not helping you. They gladly take your money when you purchase their crap but they could care less if your pet gets sick or dies. I will never purchase another product from these heartless individuals as long as I live. I’m always trying to talk people out of buying their crap if I can.

I hope your kitty cat is ok.

There isn’t much that I trust out there which is why I’m home cooking with just a tad of dry for the crunch. My dog goes nuts when I start nuking her yummy food…..she has always looked forward to her meals but not like this.

IMHO–I have no proof of this at all. My husband posted about our sick cat and the free sample. It came in a bag of cat litter. It was called Elegant Medley by a company whose name begins with P. LadyCat ate some of it. LittleCat (a feral) wasn’t around. I washed and recycled the can, unfortunately. In five days, LadyCat was sick. She’s getting better now, but I don’t know yet if she’ll end up in chronic renal failure. Her urine tested POSITIVE for melamine. The Wellness chicken dry (old lot and new lot) that the cats were eating tested negative for antifreeze, melamine, cyanuric acid, acetaminophen, etc. at Cornell University. The P company says she got into antifreeze or Lilies. I don’t have Lilies and the antifreeze lives in the trunk of the car. She is a housecat. We got her from a shelter and she was declawed so she never, ever goes outside. She was negative for ethylene glycol poisoning. That company denies any wrongdoing. I looked up the product on the Internet and it contains wheat gluten. If you can avoid it, do not do any business with the P company. They will lie like rugs to you. How else could she have gotten melamine in her urine when her regular food was negative? I use stainless steel bowls. One lousy can and I don’t know what will happen to her. I hate that company.

Elaine:

You go, girl……good for you. Sadly, I know people who don’t have a clue are still buying this “new & improved” garbage but it doesn’t look to me like many are. No matter where I go, I look down the pet food aisle & rarely see more than one person….& a lot of times that person is reading the bag or can……which makes me smile, especially when they put it back. Now THAT makes my day.

One natural pet food store in town carries Nutro (they carry all the premium products so don’t ask me why they carry this one), another holistic pet store I go to in another town doesn’t carry it, they only carry the really good stuff. When I tried CA Natural & my dog got sick on it (sensitive tummy, nothing wrong with it…..she gets sick on the best of them), the owner at the local place suggested I try Nutro’s sensitive stomach…..I didn’t mean to but I know I gave him a dirty look & said “I don’t think so”! Anyone I know who is feeding any of the brands that we all know to be crap, I talk to them about it & offer to send them some of the posts about animals getting sick on that particular brand. I think it’s very important to make sure other people are not making their pets sick with the crap that’s still out there.

It is true that people are convinced that only the canned food had problems, that all dry food is perfectly safe to feed to their animals. That’s simply because the money & power of the big PF companies kept it out of the media…..only those spending time on the internet (at the wonderful websites we all know & love) got the whole scoop. I feel it’s up to us to help get the word out so these companies don’t sell a lot of their crap.

I went in to a D&B store to check out their dog food today. I asked where the dog food was located? and was told. I was looking for some of the varieties that have been mentioned here, but the shelves were full of Nutro products, many “organic, and natural, and new and improved, etc”!

They also had Iams, Science Diet, and another product (maybe Diamond foods?). Needless to say, I didn’t find what I was looking for, but interesting to me, was that TWO of the sales associates, the one that I asked and another one followed me to the pet food aisle and asked if I had found what I wanted. I told them “No, I AM NOT going to buy any Nutro products, or products from any of the other companies that didn’t recall the product hoping it would all get sold, even tho they knew pets were dying! I am boycotting those companies for their lack of ethical behavior.

There were signs above all the pet food saying it was “safe” etc. It was very apparent to me that the pet food isn’t selling, and they were wanting to know my reaction to the “new” products!
