Demented Puke DELIBERATELY Put Poison in some of the Pet Food from One

"Recall expanded to some dry cat food By ANDREW BRIDGES, Associated
Press Writer
Fri Mar 30, 6:41 PM ET

WASHINGTON (AP) - Federal testing of recalled pet foods turned up a
chemical used to make plastics but failed to confirm the presence of a
cancer drug also used as rat poison. The recall expanded Friday to
include the first dry pet food.

The New York State Food Laboratory identified a cancer drug and rat
poison called aminopterin as the likely culprit in the pet food. But
the FDA said it could not confirm that finding, nor have researchers
at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey when they
looked at tissue samples taken from dead cats. And experts at the
University of Guelph detected aminopterin in some samples of the
recalled pet food, but only in the parts per billion or trillion
range.

"Biologically, that means nothing. It wouldn't do anything," said
Grant Maxie, a veterinary pathologist at the Canadian university.
"This is a puzzle." "
