PET food RECALL UPDATE: OTHER CONTAMINANTS MAY BE INVOLVED </SPAN>Since Menu Foods, Inc. announced its massive pet food recall on March 16, the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center has been flooded with calls from pet parents and animal welfare professionals alike. Based on data from these calls, the ASPCA reports that clinical signs in cats affected by the contaminated foods are not fully consistent with the ingestion of rat poison containing aminopterin which, says Menu Foods, is at the “root” of the contamination issue. Explains the ASPCA’s Dr. Steven Hansen, veterinary toxicologist, “There are so many inconsistencies in the purported link between aminopterin and the animals affected that we urge veterinary toxicologists and veterinary pathologists at diagnostic laboratories to continue looking for additional contaminants.” Pets who are being treated for kidney failure suspected to be related to contaminated food should stay on their treatment. If your pet has eaten contaminated food and shows any signs of illness, including loss of appetite, lethargy, vomiting, diarrhea, changes in Water consumption and changes in urination, please consult with a veterinarian or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center at (888) 426-4435 immediately. In order to help with your pet’s diagnosis, you are advised to: - retain food samples for analysis - save all packaging and receipts, and document the product name, type of product, date codes and/or production lot numbers - document the dates that the product was fed to your pet, how much was eaten, and the time when you first noticed symptoms Adverse effects or deaths of pets conclusively linked to eating the contaminated foods should be reported to the FDA. Additionally, the American Veterinary Medical Association website contains helpful information for pet parents and veterinarians.

Well if you can't change his mind, I think it will be interesting to have the two different types in the same household. He will probably lose quicker yet in about a few months time you'll catch up and probably be healthier cause you lost yours slower. He also may end up with gall bladder and hair loss issues. Good luck tomorrow.. I'm excited for you! T

I went to the pharmacy and bought a roll of paper tape to put directly on my scar then I bought a roll of the thick solid white tape that is hard to tear to put two layers on top. I have discovered that though it's not as much as.. the stickers still allow the light to get through.. sunscreen will as well

Try the Bolthouse Farms line. for protein Vanillia Chai protein is good. My fav for vitamins and taste is the Blue Goodness made with berries

Any body bugg users out there? what do you think? I was thinking of getting one, but even on eBay they are about $300 and it doesn't include any online access. This sounds like a very little gadget not only to buy but to maintain. I would love some details and feedback from other body bugg users. T

What is a body bugg?

April 2nd. Hopefully I won't gain back what I've lost until then...:phanvan

Can't wait for April 2nd to get here for my 1st fill. I'm starting to GRAZE

And HOPEFULLY his marriage....

I am still slightly swollen under the bra area where my port is AND I'm right on the verge of a visit from aunti flow and the only bra I can wear right now is my tie dyed cotton athletic bra and that for NO MORE than 8-9 hours.

My advice... for what it's worth is.. Surround yourself with sugar free Jello and sugar free pudding and sugar free Popcicles.. that way when you just absolutely HAVE to graze.. it won't be so bad. T

You were most Def VIOLATED

What the HELL are we buying Wheat shit from f'in CHina when we friggin' grow the stuff here.

THAT'S IT THAT'S IT!!!!!! The email poem I was talking about. Some people are in your life for a REASON, and when that is done, they are gone, Others are in your life for a SEASON, and when the season is over, they are gone. Then there are the ones that are for LIFE and those are VERY few and far between. A lot of times we mistake reason & season friends for lifers but they are not and there will be others to come along. I found the poem on google. Take a read.. IT"S GREAT People Come Into Your Life For A Reason, A Season Or A Lifetime Unknown Author When you figure out which one it is, you will know what to do for each person. When someone is in your life for a REASON. . . It is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they are! They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part, or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered. And now it is time to move on. Then people come into your life for a SEASON.... Because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They bring you an experience of peace, or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season. LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons : things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person, and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant. How much of this poem, can you relate to?

I thought I would share this with you.. March 22, 2007 We want to provide an update on the recent recall of "wet" pet foods produced by Menu Foods, Inc. We are deeply saddened by this situation. We know it has caused a lot of concern and has touched pet lovers throughout North America, including our own employees. We've received a lot of questions, so we want to give you the latest information. First, we want to assure you that this recall affects only a small portion of our "wet" pet food products manufactured at the Menu Foods plant in Emporia, Kansas. We have a variety of canned wet food products that are currently available on store shelves that are not affected in any way by this recall. We also want to assure you that our Iams and Eukanuba dry foods are not affected by the recall, and are readily available in stores. These foods are not part of the recall – there are no concerns at all about dry food. P&G manufactures Iams and Eukanuba dry foods at our own plants, not at Menu Foods. You may wonder why some "wet" food was produced at Menu Foods. In fact, virtually every pet food company commonly uses outside partners for special or small volume items. Nonetheless, the different branded products made by Menu are not "the same". Our Iams and Eukanuba pet foods have unique recipes and important ingredient differences that distinguish them from other pet food brands. Because of our concern for pets and their well-being, we took immediate action to voluntarily participate in Menu Foods' "wet" food product recall and to work with retailers to get the small portion of our "wet" products affected by the recall off all store shelves in the U.S. and Canada. Until the root cause of this pet health issue is found, we will not produce any more of these products at the Emporia plant. We'll keep you updated when we have more information. Pets are an important part of all of our families. P&G Pet Care employees share your concerns and are firmly committed to you and the health of your pet. We are working hard to respond to your questions, and provide the information and help you need. We value your trust and confidence during this extremely difficult time. P&G Pet Care

Good point

OH MY FUCKING GOSH. Well,, here is the reason hundreds of pets where killed... Rat Poison Cited In Pet food Recall Wheat From China Contaminated, Lab Says POSTED: 9:52 am CDT March 23, 2007 E-mail this story | Print this story A spokeswoman for the New York state Department of Agriculture and Markets said Friday that rodent poison was found in tainted pet food that killed several animals and sparked a nationwide recall. It is believed that the chemical aminopterin was on wheat imported from China, ABC News reported. Various online medical sources indicate that aminopterin is also used in trials to treat leukemia. // Set DC ad positionif(typeof dcadposition == 'undefined')dcadposition = 1;else dcadposition++;if (typeof segQS == 'undefined')segQS='';if (typeof adid == 'undefined')adid='false';document.write(""); [/url]if ((!document.images && navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Mozilla/2.") >= 0) || navigator.userAgent.indexOf("WebTV")>= 0) {document.write("");document.write("");} By the way.. the only food it affected was the meat in Gravy kind in both pouches and cans.

I was thinking for me it would come in handy at a buffet so I didn't have to pay the full adult price and they don't allow you to eat off of anothers ones plate.
