In the case of the contaminated pet food, kidney failure is a result of the poisoning, and this can cause extreme thirst in pets, and infrequent urination. Other problems include lethargy, diarrhea, change in appetite, and more.

By noticing these changes, you may find the problem before it gets too serious.

Of course, if your cat or dog’s food is a suspected products, right away get rid of it. Be careful that your pet won’t find it in the garbage (the same for animals outside the house when it’s disposed of). As well, you can also return the food to the store if it’s unopened for a refund, whenever possible.

Preventative measures can also help avoid health issues. If your pet has not shown any symptoms, you may still wish to get him or her checked out. This is vitally important if they have eaten any of the recalled food brands. But whether or not you suspect any problem, and whether there are symptoms or not, it’s a good idea to take a trip to your veterinarian soon.

With the petfood controversy, cat and dog health is a major national concern. A pet caregiver will always want to be alert looking after their cat or dog, and watch for their health – to ensure it’s always good.
