Aunti Mabel
Not sure if the purrs are working or something else. She's very elderly for a (gasp, dog) but she's eating again. She's not totally stable on her feet, sometimes plopping down suddenly. There was a recall on some dog treats, somthing about 360 dogs died. I fear I may have had some of them as I was trying to avoid canyon creek. Because we treat size the same and Aunti Mabel is half the weight of Cash, she may have had that newest recall they can't figure out but from China. If she's getting better, bless all the purrs. I have stopped using all 'treats' I do not make at home and did 2 weeks ago but the last of them deemed safe were still in a jar. Milos? Aunti Mabel is tough as nails so if that was it, she's gonna get better. My hopes are up today. Yesterday, I was not sure she'd be alive in the morning. She ate some raw beef (home ground, low bacteria stuff like you'd do if you were feeding your own family and knew about that) for brekfast then a bit of kibble and ate a normal dinner level.

Carol That is very good to hear, Carol. When I saw the' Subject', I thought 'uh oh..oh no", but it was 'better' news Whew.. I'd save the bag(s) of the offending 'treats' ! You might have a lawsuit on your hands. Good for you to make your own treats for her. Our cats don't get cat treats, because a couple of them have 'funny tummy's', but nothing toxic like what Mabel had. I'm hoping for the best and you and your entire family are in my good thoughts and high hopes, purrs and prayers, for Auntie Mabel and you. I know you'll keep us posted and thanks you for this update. Kyla -- |

Speaking for myself I try at all costs to avoid all pet food products that are made in China. While that does not guarantee products made in the US will be safe, *usually* the better quality products made in the US *usually* use better quality ingredients. Stuff made in China usually use the lowest common denominator, shipped to the US, where it is dumped and sold at a "new low price", but you can be sure that the company that had it made in China, the Chinese manufacturer, and everyone along the line are making out like thieves along the way. It is a shame that something like this continues to happen to US consumers. I feed Calypso ProPlan and Milk-bones and some beef jerky for treats, and Misty gets Fancy Feast. Again my continue prayers for Aunti Mabel's speedy recovery. R.H. Ruskin aka "The Bobcat" and yes also from Her Lady (??) Misty who is peering over my shoulder as I type and Calypso, "The Wonder Dog" who is also watching me. |

Aunti Mabel had a full recovery and we are now either making all pet treats or using only Blue Wilderness treats. Blue Wilderness for those not familiar with the brand is one of the top 10 rated brands for dogs (and cats). -- |
