Wow...I'm happy we feed NutriSource to our dog and cats! My dog forums (Yes. I frequent The BigDogsPorch.....dedicated to giants!!!) have been in a tizzy since this was released as MANY shelters feed the brands listed.

It absolutely kills my heart that animals have died from this.

My wifes friend fed her cat one of those on the list. The cat died of liver failure earlier this week.

Sad to see it happen as she bought the stuff as a "treat" for the cat and doesn't normally buy it. Her older cat sniffed it and walked away.
