Menu Foods, which makes pet food for 17 of the top 20 North American retailers is recalling 46 brands of dog food and 37 brands of cat food distribute throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico and sold through major retailers such as Wal-Mart, Kroger and Safeway until the company can determine what cause kidney failure and some deaths of dogs and cats.
"At this juncture, we're not 100 percent sure what's happened," said Paul Henderson, the company's president and chief executive officer. However, the recalled products were made using wheat gluten purchased from a new supplier, since dropped for another source, spokeswoman Sarah Tuite said. Wheat gluten is a source of protein.

Poisoning the food we feed our animals is foolish. Just like mad cow disease, this too is a man made problem. When will the food producers realize that producing a quality, healthy product will make them more money than using crap? Greed is poisoning all aspects of food production, from human to pet.
Our family pet Mixy, a Lab cross, had to be euthanised because of kidney failure due to eating food from this company. I am outraged and wonder if there are others who are doing anything about their pets who have died because of this negligence.
Globalocity Killed the Cat.
