Mar. 19, 2007 - Pet food recall

More than 90 brands of pet food tainted

Menu Foods, the Ontario-based company that produced the pet food, said it was recalling numerous dog food and cat food brands. The recall now covers dog food sold throughout North America under 51 brands and cat food sold under 40 brands, including Iams, Nutro and Eukanuba. The food was sold under both store and major brand labels at Wal-Mart, Kroger, PetSmart, Safeway and other large retailers.

An undetermined number of cats and dogs had suffered kidney failure and about 10 died after eating the affected pet food, the company said.  Many stores that sold the affected brands frantically pulled packages off shelves.

Menu Foods designated two phone numbers that pet owners could call for information — (866) 463-6738 and (866) 895-2708

Here is a listing of dog food and cat food brands recalled.  If your pet's eating habits have changed in the past few days or if it is vomitting, contact your veterinarian, ASAP.
