Purina Overweight Management Rx cat food recall posted by Not The Mama! (5/13/2012)

Canadian and US Pet Food Recall Expanded to 39 States: List Of Recalled Products. ~Nikita & Elvira

In case people aren’t aware, there is a pet food recall going on. The manufacturer, Diamond Foods, has their own page about it here, but several high-end pet food companies (Natural Balance, Canidae, Wellness) have notified their distributors and confirmed with people that there are indeed additional recalls over the weekend, so it isn’t included in the master list that most people and news outlets will consult. See The Truth About Pet Food website for information about the additional recalls. Just as in 2007, stores aren’t getting the word promptly and pulling their stock, so please share this information with your non-blogging friends who have dogs and cats and might have bought this food as recently as this weekend. ~The crew at Sometimes, Cats Herd You
