Fancy Feast
Is anyone else still feeding with canned Fancy Feast? I haven't seen
it on the recall list, but I stopped using it yesterday - just in case. Seems like they are adding to the list all the time. However, every time I go to feed the kitty with hard food he goes to the cupboard that the canned food is in and just stands there looking at me. |

Seems like they are adding to the list all the time. ------- I am still feeding my kitties canned Fancy Feast every day. I have not seen Fancy Feast appear on any list. All my cats are fine (Alex has CRF, but it's not because of cat food. I have been giving him Pepcid, and he is actually looking much better these past few days than he's looked in weeks. He has been eating Fancy Feast every day.). It seems like the major problems were with chunks in gravy style foods. I don't buy any foods with gravies any more but even if I did, Fancy Feast was not one of the products recalled. Best regards, ---Cindy S.

That is good to hear. My guy likes FF grilled - so it has the gravy
which is why I was concerned. Better to err on the side of caution. I did email Purina and ask - days ago, but sadly haven't heard anything from them.

Seems like they are adding to the list all the time. However, every time I go to feed the kitty with hard food he goes to the cupboard that the canned food is in and just stands there looking at me. The recalls seem to be associated with gluten, so I suggest that you check the list of ingredients to see if gluten is listed. PetFoodDirect.com makes it very easy to check ingredients for every pet food they carry (just click on the name of the product and then on "details"), so I just checked one of the Fancy Feast items for you. There was no gluten listed for FF Chopped Grill Feast. I don't know if that's the variety you use, but you could easily do the same thing. I find it much easier to go to PetFoodDirect's web site than to try to read the labels on the cans because print is *so* small on most of those labels.

Thanks, but he likes the grilled chicken or grilled turkey - newer
versions and the label does say that it contains wheat gluten - which is why I am worried. The local vet says that the wheat was contaminated with mold - but I don't know his source on that.

Purina has information on their website:
http://fancyfeast.com Up top is says that the food is not affected by the recall. My kitten is eating it and all is well... On Mar 21, 8:57 am, "Buddy's Mom" wrote: That is good to hear.

They don't know for sure if it's the gluten. They are only speculating at
this point. I wouldn't depend on a product not containing gluten to determine if it's safe to use. "MaryL" -OUT-THE-LITTER wrote in message ... "Buddy's Mom" wrote in message oups.com...
