Answer 1

please look at the 25 other posts this morning about the same exact thing that you are asking about. Its only been the hottest topic on here and its getting old and old very very fast. I am sure as you were typing your question it would have showed you the billion related questions to the same thing. Also Ringworm isnt a worm, its a fungus of the skin, your cat cant throw up ringworm. If its long and white its probably a round worm, you need to get some wormer from a vet, cause if the cat has worms bad enough to throw them up they are now migrating from the intestines to the stomach. She is miserble and not getting proper nutrition from the worms, so you need to get her help right now. And NO the worms didnt come from the recalled foods. It came from not being wormed as a kitten or eating mice and dead animals she caught at some time.

Answer 2

Ok, first of all ringworm is NOT a worm, its a skin fungus. If your pet is vomiting up any type of worm you should see your vet soon for an exam and proper deworming.
Second, the food recall is HUGE. You can use this site to look up the specific foods that may be affected:

You can click on the appropriate link and see there are many brands listed (not just junkie store brands either).

Answer 3

Here's the link to the list of all recalled foods: http://www.menufoods.com/recall/

They supposedly did cause vomiting, but if your cat actually threw up a worm, I'm pretty sure the worm is the cause of your troubles and not the food. Was it actually alive? Are you sure it wasn't a piece of yarn or something s/he ate off the floor? If you're sure it was a wriggling worm, call the vet to see what types of worms a cat might throw up and take him/her in.
