I am feeding my cats people food until all this pet food scare is over. Every day new brands are being recalled and I have four cats and I don't want to lose anyone of them. Have you changed your animals diet since the scare?

We've never fed our cats anything that was on the recall list and never would. Those are brands that we've never used. I'm not worried at all.

they are adding new brands all the time, no one is safe until the scare passes

Very smart move until this crisis is resolved. You know, when I was young our cats never got anything else except people food. What worries me most is that gluten is in everything and there could be a time when people food also gets contaminated.

Yes it has even though I do not use any of those Brands so I did not have to change it but what about if other Brands have the same? Who is to tell us that they are safe, so I have to admit that it has scared me and I do keep an eye on my little Fellow all the time now

No, but I've always feed them dry food and I keep checking the foods on the list, but the one I'm feeding them for the last 3 months doesn't get their stuff from Menu **phew**

At first,yes, but when i knew which foods were bad, i wasn't worried anymore, cuz it's none of which i ever fed my dogs with, so..I feed my dogs unikely Technical's Natural Blend (holistic food) and they love it! Oh by the way, it's only dry food we give them.

I think you feeding them people food is the smartest thing to do until this is resolved. I also herd they are adding more company names to the list. I would NOT take a chance either.

I haven't changed our beloved cat's diet, as I understand it hasn't gotten into any of the hard foods, which is the only kind she can eat because of her delicate stomach. I guess I should take a look at the lists again. As you can see, she's beautiful, and precious to us, as I'm sure your cats are too. We sure don't want to lose any of them, because of this unfortunate situation.
