Latest Pet Food Recall info From Skeezic’s vet

Skeezic’s vet has just sent me the following email. I quote it here in memory of our beloved Skeezics, in hopes that it may help other pet owners.

Good afternoon,

Here is my weekly food update.  Information is coming fast
and furious.  I am including the link…

Basically, they have discovered that the “toxin” found in
food is commonly used to make plastic.  And there is also
a chance that dry food soon might be included in the recall
as well.  I reiterate that this is just speculation.  I advise that
you do watch the evening news tonight, and of course, I will
try to keep you posted as well.

and yet another email:

Good evening,

Here is the newest update in the food recall news. There
is another product added to the food recall list,
Prescription Diet m/d. I just got off the phone with our Hill’s
(Prescription Diet) rep. She assures me that this only
applies to the m/d dry line of food. They have learned that
they have purchased wheat gluten from the same
company China as Menu Foods. Since they are unsure
where the contamination has come from, they have
decided to issue the recall. There hasn’t been any reports
of issues with the Science Diet or Prescription Diet line of
foods.

As previously stated, I will give updates as I can
throughout the weekend. I have found the cnn.com
website to be very helpful through all this.

Saddly the news of the petfood recall came to late for my Skeezic’s. hopefully this info will help protect others from falling prey to his fate.
