I see where there was a dog food recall in May with 16 sick being reported.

Where's the oversight in this industry?

actually, it's cat *and* dog foods (kibble) from iams and eukanuba that have been recalled.

What's shocking, is I thought all cat and dog foods needs to meet the same safety standards as food for human consumption (Due to people consuming it in poor economic climate)?

Now I am worried what my pusses are eating. But think it is Purina cat chow.

Thanks for the heads-up, George. We feed our cats a mix of dry food and Avoderm canned but I know a few people who buy the recalled stuff for theirs.

I don't have a cat, but if I did they'd have this...
