Lots of brands were recalled. If you read what's in this stuff, it's no wonder that the animals get sick. Cats and dogs do not have the digestive enzymes to digest wheat gluten, the protein portion of wheat.

Answer 3

Menu Foods, a manufacturer of canned and pouched wet dog and cat food, has issued a precautionary recall of food manufactured in two of its facilities between Dec. 3, 2006 and
March 6, 2007.
The precautionary recall of food came after Menu Foods received reports of illnesses in cats and dogs in the U.S. that became ill with renal problems after eating the affected products. Menu Foods, a Canadian-based manufacturer is recalling all its "cuts and gravy" style dog and cat food.

As your family veterinarian, Banfield, The Pet Hospital, is closely monitoring all of our patients to ensure the health and safety of all the Pets we treat. We ask Pet owners to take the precautions ecessary if Pets were eating the impacted foods. Please discontinue use of canned or pouched food if the product is on the Menu Food recall list (listed below).

It is important that Pet owners review the complete list on the Menu Foods website to view the most updated list of the specific diets that have been recalled. Pet owners with concerns or questions regarding the effective foods should contact Menu Foods at 1-866-463-6738 or online at
http://www.menufoods.com/recall.

Pet owners who have Pets exhibiting signs of vomiting, lethargy or decreased appetite should contact their Banfield veterinarian immediately.
Menu Foods is conducting an investigation to determine the source of the problem.

It has been reported by Menu foods that some of the Pets affected have developed kidney failure. Kidney failure is a serious condition for Pets and can either develop rapidly or over a long period of time. Pets that are in kidney failure can exhibit the following symptoms:

* increased water intake
* increased urination
* decreased appetite
* vomiting
* lethargy

Pets exhibiting any or all these signs should see a Banfield veterinarian immediately. To locate the Banfield nearest to you, call
1-800-768-8858.

According to Menu Foods, no other Pet food, including dry or prescription foods, is affected by this recall at this time. Royal Canin diets are not impacted by this recall.

Pet owners can substitute the impacted foods with any dry food from the same brand or use alternative non-Menu Food canned or foil pouched wet
foods such as:

* Wet can/pouch cat food substitutes -- Friskies, Sheba, Fancy Feast, Pro Plan, Whiskas
* Wet can/pouch dog food substitutes -- Mighty Dog cans, Pedigree, Alpo, Cesar, Pro Plan
Banfield is working closely with PetSmart to ensure Pet owners are provided with alternative foods for dog and cat Pet owners to purchase.
