Dozens of pet food brands recalled
The Associated Press
UNION, N.J. | Pet owners were worried Saturday that the pet food in their cupboard may be deadly after millions of containers of dog and cat food were recalled.
Menu Foods, an Ontario-based company that produced the pet food, said the food was distributed throughout the United States by such retailers as Wal-Mart, Kroger and Safeway.
An unknown number of cats and dogs had suffered kidney failure, and about 10 died after eating the affected pet food, the company said.
Many stores that sold the brands pulled packages off shelves. At a Petsmart store in Union, Silviene Grzybowski became worried when the Iams products she buys for her cat had vanished from shelves. The cat was very sick and had not been eating for days, she said.
“The vet told us to buy her favorite food, but I’m going to call the vet right now,” Grzybowski said.
