Pet food (stealth) RECALL

[Jeweledchameleons]

They're not going to make any big fuss over this one
Ever since china got all in a huff over "just some pets" that got killed off. the USA is only alerting people if children's health is directly involved.
Due their their tradition of adding poisonous substances to food in order fake passing quality control tests, China sends us another batch of adulterated crap.

It's a very good idea to check any package and refuse to buy anything made in or sourced from china... pet food or not.

Thank you so much for posting this. As a multi-pet family, I am a member of several animal/breed oriented sites and missed this one. considering we have a bunny and parrot, these recalls are very frightening.

Thank you again. Please continue to post any that you come across !!

Thanks Chad.
I believe I just got run down and over stressed over the last few months
starting with all the toxic smoke I inhaled from the damn fires in OCT.

The antibotics and steroids are working and I'm able to function again
Thanks for the support.
