The FDA is investigating a Texas laboratory’s finding of acetaminophen in dog and cat food … the highest level found is eight times what a 10-pound cat could safely consume!

"The pain medication is the fifth contaminant found in pet foods during the past 2-1/2 months and can be toxic or lethal to pets, especially cats."

[FIVE? We knew about melamine and cyanuric acid, but what are the other three??]

At least five dog and cat food samples tested contained acetaminophen, and these five were NOT among the 150+ brands recalled since March.

The highest level of acetaminophen was found in a dog food sample submitted by a manufacturer, who got the results well over a month ago and was supposed to notify the FDA, but they DIDN’T DO IT! You can read the full story here.
