I've been feeding my 7 year old Lab Purina foods for years. I just purchased a large bag of Purina One Smart Blend with a barcode of 17800-12958, which I believe was the cause of her sickness. Within 24 hours after eating, she couldn't keep anything down for 36+ hours. She also drank excessive amounts of water. I started her on a boiled white meat chicken and rice diet and she has improved and is more like her old self. I'm thinking no more Purina for my dog.
Consumer Complaints & Reviews
My 7-year-old cocker spaniel has been acting strange for several weeks and the first symptom I noticed was how bad her breath was and she did not want to eat her food. I feed her Purina dog chow in the green bag. She would skip her morning meal and let it sit until 8 or 9 at night and only eat if I would put table scraps on top of it. Then she would get up during the night and drink a whole bowl of water. The last couple of days, the vomiting and diarrhea have started and she is eating grass. She has no energy and she smells horrible and the gas she has is so bad. She only ate half of her food last night and then I found this blog and couldn't believe it.
I gave her yogurt and chicken last night and then went and bought Canidae moist food today and she gobbled it up like she was starving and has perked up and actually wants to play. I called Purina only to be told they have not had any problems but would send me a coupon for another bag. They did say there was a change in the processing of the food last June but could not really explain to me exactly what that meant. No thanks. I will never feed it to her again. There is something very, very wrong with the food. I have not had any problems with the cat chow but I am changing that as well.
Not sure what to believe here. Our dogs eat Purina, two Shepherds have for years. This is the first trouble we have had. Dogs drinking much water, diarrhea and vomiting. We pulled the food. We are contacting Purina, the Bar Code reads 17800-12936 and the bag stamped LN1109K5 03-17-12 06:16PM
I bought my two Australian Shepherds their normal food. Purina Puppy Chow for my 7 month old girl and Little Bites, also Dog Chow for my 4 year old boy. I mix these two foods together. He became lethargic and vomiting 3 times in a row. We thought he had chewed something. Then my girl started having diarrhea and vomiting. We bought different food when we went on vacation for her while she was at the kennel/vets for the week. She was fine while we were gone. However, our boy would not eat while we were away. We thought he was just having separation anxiety. This has gotten worse. He will not eat his food at all and I just found some skin abrasion/lesion type things on him. She is eating, but having lots of diarrhea.
Please stop allowing these foods to be sold until you figure out what is in them that is hurting our pets. I have read about several recalls, but did not see the ones I bought on the list but felt the need to inform your company of the issue my pets are having that we have linked to their food. I'm deeply worried and scared.
We have a golden retriever that has been eating Purina dog chow forever. There was never any problem. This past week, he started acting funny, growling, refusing to come inside, drinking a ton of water, and not eating. Then he lost control of his hind legs, became very lethargic, and was vomiting. We thought we were going to lose him. We took him to the vet. She ran $450 worth of test. All came back perfect. She gave him antibiotics and stuff for vomiting and fever. He immediately bounced back. He came home and ate Purina. Then it started all over again. His water looks like skin tissue and mucus with blood in it. We made chicken breast, and he will eat that, but not his dog food. I will be on the phone tomorrow!
I have been feeding my 7-year-old Miniature Schnauzer Purina Pro Plan. On Thursday, my sweet boy started vomiting on my couch. I didn't feed him his dinner that evening and by morning, he seemed to be doing better. Again, I fed him his Pro Plan and again he started vomiting and subsequently developed severe diarrhea. He vomited through the night and this morning he has bloody diarrhea. He was extremely lethargic and was not responding to us. He wouldn't come out from under our deck until we pulled him out. Hours later, I made some chicken with rice and he only ate a few bites and just laid down and curled into a little ball. He wouldn't even look at us when we called his name or lift his ears. He was so sick!
A few hours later, I was able to get him to drink a little water if I brought the bowl to him. Finally this evening, I got him to eat some of my boiled chicken and rice. He is just not himself though. I'm so worried after reading these posts and I'm praying he is going to be okay. Something is definitely wrong with this food and I will never again buy any Purina product. This company will be hearing from me on Monday morning! Tell everyone you know to stay away from Purina products!
We have been feeding our dogs Purina One Lamb and Rice for a long time now. I switched last time and bought the Purina Healthy Morsels and recently our 1-year old Lab pup has lost weight and became pretty much lethargic. I took him to the vet and they said after running lab work that his liver tests were all elevated. They put him on a broad spectrum antibiotic, anti-nausea meds and sent us to a specialist. We then, a couple of days later, took him to a specialist to find out that he has thickening of the large intestines and liver counts are up.
We have spent over $1300 to help figure out what is going on with our dog. They suspect it is something he is eating or ate. The vet kept asking me what dog food he eats and after figuring out what the last bag was and researching the internet, I think I can figure out what is wrong with our dog. His dog food is killing him! It has been a long week and I take him back in tomorrow to have all of his blood work rechecked and see how he is progressing. My hopes are that our 4-legged furry family member will make it through this and he will be able to spend his many years to come with us.
Purina Pro Plan Chicken and Rice dog food - There is something wrong with the last bag of food that I purchased. My dogs have had severe diarrhea and some vomiting. I thought it may have been something they got into. I took them to the vet and they were put on strong antibiotics and a bland diet (boiled chicken and rice). Then, I slowly incorporated their food and they still have diarrhea. The vet explained it's most likely their food as they have never had a problem before. Everyone, please contact Purina directly to report the problem. Purina phone number 1-800-778-7462.
I had 2 sphinx kittens that I had raised on the bottle. They were still nursing and I decided to buy 2 cans of the Purina One Smart Blend Chicken Recipe. The kittens loved it! That evening, they had vomited the food up. The very next morning, both had passed away. I was very attached to the two girls especially since I had raised them since they were 3 weeks old.
Our German Shepherd, Zelda, age 5 years old, female has eaten Little Bites & Purina dog chow since she was a puppy. Well, last 2 months, she has completely stopped eating both. She backs away from her food bowl. At first, she became sick. She threw up. Now, I cannot get her to eat any Purina products. She eats only canned food now, human food & I cook her chicken, brown rice, etc. No, she isn't spoiled. I know that one would think so, but I am 100% convinced that something has changed in Purina. I even tried covering the Little Bites with canned food, beef juices, etc. She would walk away. I called Purina. They sent me a check for $15 but no Purina will my dog eat. Oh, the lady at Purina did say something about them changing the formula? Anyway, now I am scared to feed any dog any dry food, Purina or otherwise. I am now making my own dog food of liver, brown rice, chicken & veggies. The dog loves green beans. After Zelda became sick & started hating Purina, I had to hand feed her to start her eating again. It's as if she was scared to eat. The vet said she is fine, no teeth problems, etc. I don't know what's going on with pet foods but now she eats only what I make or Pedigree canned food or Science Diet cans.
I purchased bag of Purina Pro Plan Mature/Adult bag of food for our yellow lab. She just turned 9 years old. After a few feedings out of that bag, she became lethargic and vomiting. This lasted for 24 hours. I took her food and water away for 24 hours. She seemed to be better. When I put her food back down to eat she wouldn't have anything to do with it. She sniffed and walked away from the food. I purchased Pro Plan can food thinking she had an upset tummy and it would be easier for her to digest. I opened a can, put in her bowl and she wouldn't go near the food. I made an appointment with our vet. He tested her blood and her liver enzymes were too high. She received a prescription for 30 days for her liver and is now eating Hill's Prescription I/D for liver.
I fed her the new food as directed by the vet and boy did she start feeling better. Today, she is wagging her tail and is almost normal. The vet did mention that it could be the dog food she had been eating after I told him she wouldn't eat it but couldn't be sure. I believe it was the Purina Pro Plan that was bad because my lab always gobbles up her food. She never walked away from food before.
I have been feeding my Boxer Purina One (Chicken and Rice smart blend) dog food for the past 11 years. In the last week (on the very day I opened a new bag of food), he became ill. He was throwing up and was constantly thirsty. My dog will not go near his dog food now. He is usually a pig and gobbles the whole bowl of food down and now won't go anywhere near his bowl. All he wants is water and about an hour after drinking it, he vomits a smelly yellow bile. He is also urinating a lot more than normal. He is very lethargic and just not acting like himself. This is day number 4 he won't eat, so now I'm trying anything. I just made him 4 scrambled eggs and so far so good he has kept it down for the last 3 hours. I'm wondering if this was a bad batch of dog food? I can't find any recall information. After reading these posts, I will never buy Purina products again. This is terrible!
Lately, I have noticed that my dog gets these horrible bouts of explosive diarrhea after eating Purina dog food. He has been on the same food for years and now all of a sudden he explodes every time he eats this food. I took him off of it for a few days and he was fine. I gave it to him two nights ago and bingo - he exploded all over the floor again next day. After reading some of these complaints, I am wondering if there is something wrong with the food.
Approximately one month ago, we bought our dog food from the Walmart in Washington, Pennsylvania. We usually alternate between Purina Pro Plan Chicken & Rice and Lamb & Rice, as our 16 month basset mix, Ace, has taken a liking to both flavors. This time around was the lamb and rice we had purchased. That evening, when we fed him his supper, he did not eat nor did he eat it for breakfast or at all throughout the day. It was not until about 9PM that night that he touched his food at all. The next day, he was lethargic and slept all day. He seemed himself almost entirely, except for his extra exhaustion. He was fine throughout the week, but continued to avoid eating his food until he was very hungry.
The following week, my fiance noticed a small amount of mucus-like blood in his stool. I told him we would keep watch for a week and if it did not clear up, we would call the vet. It happened one other time the next day, but seemingly cleared up entirely. At the end of that week, Friday evening, I returned home from work to find extremely soft, dark, blood laden stool. I immediately called the vet and left a message stating that we would be in Monday morning as soon as possible. By Monday morning, his stool had cleared up and became more solid again. I brought both the bloody stool sample and the solid stool sample to the vet with me. He said that the stool was free of parasites, which I was grateful of. He also said that there was a lot of cellulose in it, meaning that Ace was eating a lot of grasses. He was doing that instead of eating his dry food.
The vet said he seemed to be fine and physically looked like a healthy dog. He recommended that we put him on a boiled rice and hamburger diet for one week to help clear out his digestive system. We finished the hamburger diet last Thursday and put him back on his solid food. Again Saturday morning, his stool had bloody mucus in it. I decided to buy a small bag of Purina Pro Plan Chicken and Rice to test out, thinking maybe we got a bad "batch". So far, he seems to be fine and his stool is solid and clear of any blood. It had only been a few days but his energy levels are up and he is eating his food regularly again. After reading these reviews, however, I am taking him off of Purina brands entirely starting tonight. Hopefully, he maintains his good health.
I love my dog as much or more than some people love their children. I feel horrible for those who lost their pets to something like this. It is unacceptable for poor quality food to make it to the truck, let alone, the shelf. Hopefully, Purina sees this soon enough before more loved ones are lost.
I had been buying Purina One Healthy Puppy formula for my pup, Larry. He was doing very well on it and I was satisfied with how he was doing. One of my primary drivers for buying this food was the fact that lamb was the primary ingredient and based on my previous experience, lamb was much better on dog's stomachs than most other foods. I just bought another bag recently and began feeding it to Larry and a couple of days later, I noticed his appetite had dwindled. I was concerned, but monitored him. He was still eating, but not as much. Then unexpectedly one night, he had diarrhea all over the bed. I took him outside and he proceeded to vomit and not move much for a half hour. I brought him back in the house and yet more vomiting.
After all of this, I had no choice but to take him to the vet and they did not find anything wrong physically (no viruses, blockage, etc.), so I looked at his food. Lo and behold, Purina changed from a lamb-based product to a chicken-based product. The packaging did say this, but it was in very small font and it gave absolutely no indication on the package that the formula had changed. I went back to the store I bought the previous package and found an older bag of his formula based in lamb and decided to get it just because it was what his stomach was used, but I swore this was the last Purina product I will buy.
Furious, I wrote an email explaining my displeasure with their choice to cheap out on their product, but sell it at the same price while putting what I imagine is many dogs in intestinal distress. You can't just switch food brands like that, it does terrible things to dogs' stomachs. I informed them of my decision to not have anything to do with their products again. Their response, they're sending me a coupon to get more food. Exactly what I want, more of their deceptive practices thrust upon me. It's disgusting that a company like them can act like this.
Our dog, Gizmo, a normally very perky Australian Shepherd, is dying of kidney/renal failure. About a month ago, he started frequently urinating, drinking a lot of water, and became a little lethargic. He did not want to eat his dog food. This was the opposite of the normal Gizmo. We consulted a vet who said, "Give him a few days, he will snap out of it." Then, Gizmo stopped eating all together and started dropping weight dramatically in the past few weeks. We took him to a different vet who stated that he may have lymes disease and did a bunch of expensive tests. The testing came back as kidney failure, but they could not confirm the lymes disease, but due to the symptoms, she started IV's, antibiotics, and kept him for three days trying to restart his kidneys.
Yesterday, we picked Gizmo up. The vet said that the fluids did not work, and Gizmo has only days to live. We have done research on detoxifying his kidneys and put him on a strict whole foods diet, although he barely eats. We are praying for this little guy, as he is our family member. We cannot imagine life without him. Then last night, we noticed that our black lab, Cole, has lost weight too. He too is refusing to eat his dog food, even with bacon grease on it. This is highly unusual for our glutton of a dog. We are taking him to the vet to be tested, but this made us wonder about the food.
When we read other people's similar stories, we were horrified that Purina has let this go on so long. I hope they are testing their food, doing something to check into this. Perhaps it is only a few random bags, but to hear the heart breaking stories of people like us who have dying or dead pets, huge vet bills, and suspect the dog food, it is so alarming! I have posted a warning on Facebook, with a link to this web page, and asked that others spread the word. Until this is investigated further, people need to know that their pets could be in danger. I hope Purina reads this and does something. I have saved the bag and am going to find out where it can be tested. These dogs are like family to me.
Last summer, as I left for work, I fed my Yellow Lab the last of her usual dog food so I stopped on the way home to pick up a small bag of the green Purina Dog Chow. Within an hour of feeding her, she was on the floor having multiple seizures. We rushed her to the vet and he told us she was probably having epileptic seizures, ran blood work and gave us seizure medicine to use. I noticed after returning home from the vet (after paying $400) that the dog would not touch the food anymore so I threw it out thinking she was being picky and bought her usual food. I continued giving her the seizure medicine and eventually waned her off of it. Everything was great until the next time I ran low on food and not finding her usual food in stock.
I bought another small bag of Purina Dog Chow to get her through a few days. Again, within hours of eating the food, she had another seizure. I was able to control it at home and not realizing at the time it was the food causing the seizures, continued trying to feed it to her. She refused once again so I bought another brand and mixed them together. She reluctantly ate it.
This past Friday evening, I ran to the local Walmart where I always buy my dog food and found once again they were out of stock of the usual food so I grabbed a small green bag of Purina Dog Chow. Within an hour of feeding the dog, she had another seizure at the top of the staircase. It was as bad or worse than the previous ones, and this began me thinking of the related causes. I firmly believe it was the Purina Dog Chow I bought and unfortunately, it took me buying it three times to put two and two together as to the cause of the seizures.
It is now Sunday and I am researching this online looking for others who have possibly had the same experiences with Purina and found this blog. I send out a warning to others--do not feed your dog Purina brand foods. I don't know if it is being shipped to the States from overseas, if it is improperly being stored at the stores, if Purina has issues at their plants or if it is something we have yet to know the cause of. I am taking the remainder of the bag I currently have and sending samples of it to the Purina company with a written complaint and I will let you know what I find.
Purina One Dog Food: I have had the same thing happen that others here have complained about. My Cocker Spaniel started drinking unbelievable amounts of water and urinating a lot more than usual. Then came the explosive bloody diarrhea and acting lethargic. I took the dog to the vet and his blood work was horrible. His platelet count was 12! Started him on predisone, antibiotics, and 2 other meds. He stopped eating and drinking. I started offering him scrambled eggs and little by little he started feeling better after a few days, still having diarrhea and acting somewhat lethargic, especially like others reported, having difficulty walking.
There is no doubt in my mind that there was something wrong with the food. Like others reported, my dog only ate the dry food, no table scraps and is an inside dog in a controlled environment. Something they have added to the new formula is not good for our pets! The dog won't go near a bowl of it now. They are smarter than they get credit for at times obviously. I would like to see Purina reimburse people for their vet bills at the very least. No amount of money can replace a pet, and I am truly heartbroken for those who have lost their pets to something that could have been avoided. These products need to be removed from the shelves until they can find out what the problem is with the formula.
I have had several bags of dog food from Purina One that have a white fluffy substance in them with a worm underneath it (attached to the dog food pieces). I returned them all, but this has been happening over several months. Two of my dogs have died in the last 6 months, in December 2011 and February 2012. I'm not saying that the dog food worms caused their deaths, but it is a possibility. They were old, but I can't help but think they might have lived longer had it not been for the tainted dog food. Petsmart informs me that they've notified Purina many many times. Why is this allowed to continue?
Purina Dog Chow made my dog ill. The same thing happened to me as the other complaints, so I guess I can keep this short. My dog has always eaten Dog Chow, with no adverse effects. Then suddenly he developed a bad case of diarrhea. Now, we can barely get him to eat anything at all. He acts as if he has trouble walking at times. I'm concerned that some people have said their dogs have died from this food.
I normally feed my 10 year old tabby with Iams. But I snagged a sale on Purina One Smart Blend (exp 5/13). She is sick now so I am searching the internet for recall info. She is lethargic, vomiting and meowing mournfully. I am wondering if it is the food.
I have a 4-year-old otherwise-healthy Rottweiler. We've had him on Purina One Smart Blend Lamb and Rice, since they switched their formulation. He has had random diarrhea events, but I never thought anything of it. Since the beginning of March, he started having explosive diarrhea with no apparent cause. I have taken him 3 times to the vet to get him checked out. They first changed his diet to boiled ground beef, rice and cottage cheese; and he seemed to do much better.
After starting back on the regular dry dog food, he began having the explosive diarrhea again. The second time I took him, they treated him for parasites with antibiotics and an anti-diarrhea medicine. Once back on the regular food, the diarrhea came back. Now today, the third time, we took him to the vet; and they have done blood work and a fecal test. And the vet bills are racking up.
After reading all of these complaints, I can only come to the conclusion that his problems are the result of the dog food. I will be filing a complaint with Purina as well as the FDA and spreading the word. Pets are family, and their food should be regulated better. I have quite a bit of money to try and help my dog, and he's been through hell, feeling sick the last month and a half.
I recently acquired a rescue Great Dane. She is by far the largest of my six dogs, so I went to the store to get her some large breed food and decided on Purina. For several days, I mixed it with the food I received from the shelter and noticed she had diarrhea. I took in a stool sample, and it was clean. The vet said perhaps it was the stress of a new environment. She is thin, and the vet said she needed to gain some weight, so I should gradually increase her intake as well.
I started feeding her more of the Purina, but the diarrhea did not go away for over a week. Over the weekend, I ran out of my regular food for the other dogs and decided to give Purina as well till I got to the store. Lo and behold, after two days, I have six adult dogs--all of them are housebroken--now having uncontrollable diarrhea in the house. They are all drinking water like mad, too. I will never buy Purina products again. Period.
I bought a bag of Purina Dog Chow because it was $3-$4 cheaper than my usual Beneful dog food. I trusted the Purina brand as I had previously given in to my cats for years, but shortly after my dog finished eating, he had explosive diarrhea and has not stopped for 36 hours. He has been taken to vet to clear all possible infectious diseases, etc. and has been put on rice, ground meat and yogurt diet.
Since I cut out Purina Dog Chow completely and have implemented the home remedy suggested by my licensed Veterinarian, my dog's condition has begun to improve. I am convinced there is something wrong with the food, especially after researching the topic and stumbling across numerous similar and current complaints.
We started a new bag of Pro Plan large breed puppy chicken and rice dog food for our 5month old on Thursday and he has been so sick. Shortly after starting the new bag of food, he was having violent diarrhea. We took him to the vet on Friday and got some medicine to help slow down the diarrhea and when we started introducing the food back to his diet, he threw it up soon after he ate it and had more diarrhea. We have since been feeding him homemade food suggested by the vet to get through the weekend and we fed him our full grown lab dog food, chicken and rice food this morning and he did not throw it back up. I think there is something wrong with the Pro Plan food. We purchased the food in the big bag at the Petsmart on Winchester Ave. in Memphis last week. We have another bag of food that we will take back to the retailer today.
Please check this food lot to make sure it's not bad in some way - my purpose for sending this communication is for you to check the food lot. I don't want other dogs to get sick.
I ran out of cat food the other night and of course, the pet stores were closed. I ran into Sobeys 24-hour and picked up a bag of Purina Cat Chow Weight Management. Within a few hours, 2 of our 3 cats were vomiting. I found it odd that they were healthy a few hours earlier. The next morning, I went to the store to get one of our regular foods (Iams) and replaced it for the Purina. One of the two cats seems better, but the 8-month old is still vomiting and having trouble breathing. Now I have to wait until tomorrow afternoon to take her to the vet. I am hoping she sleeps it off and is fine, but I am shocked by all the similar stories posted here.
I will be calling Purina tomorrow and voicing my concerns for all that is worth. I will also be calling a few local papers and TV stations to see if there is an interest in probing this further. Purina has just made my decision to switch to a vet food that's much easier. It may be more expensive, but after taking into account vet bills, I think it will save me money in the long run and my peace of mind is worth the extra cash as well. My cats are a joy and I can't believe I was so cheap to buy them this crap in the first place. Shame on me.
First time buying Purina Cat Chow Weight Management. The cats all started frothing, foaming and gagging. My kitten is so sick and has been for days. We switched back to normal food the day after, but she's still heaving and her breathing is off. I'm worried about her health and she is going to the vet tomorrow.
On Sunday, April 8th, I fed my beloved 10-year old Siamese/Birman cat Fancy Feast Grilled Tuna. I usually smell the can's contents but was in a hurry and did not check the contents. My cat ate her 3 pm meal and all seemed all right. I went out and came home. All was well until 10 pm when suddenly Nylablue sat bolt upright and started 'slurping' then she projectile vomited on the living room rug. It was the tuna I had fed her at 3pm undigested! It smelled like feces and was a yellowish/tan color. After three sessions of vomiting, she ran to the litterbox and had explosive diarrhea that was the same color and smelled like the vomit. The diarrhea went on until 12:30 am and we fell asleep around 2 am. I rushed Nylablue to Vet on Monday and my Vet did a thorough check and said it was food poisoning! My girl had Sub Q fluids and a Cerenia injection, total of $94.
Nylablue did not eat all Monday or Tuesday nor drink water. I rushed her back to Vet on Wednesday and once again we did Sub Q fluids and a Prednisone injection plus pilling her with Mirtazipine to stimulate her appetite. She was put on Vet food which she ate for a day. Last night, Nylablue had the biggest poop I have ever seen and she is only 10 lbs. The Vet says it was the poison leaving her system. Nylablue is still on the mend and it will be a while before we know if there is any permanent damage done. She is still listless and lethargic.
It took three days to speak to someone at Purina office. I called a total of 10 times and sent two emails. I had to leave a belligerent message to get a phone call. The email I was sent suggested I bought a dented can of food. I was enraged as I check every can and I pack them at the grocery store myself. After 1+ hour on the phone with the customer care rep, she told me a courier would come and get the eight remaining cans of Grilled Tuna and analyze them. The man did show up today. I have an extra can here in case I need a separate test done. Supposedly the Purina Vet was to contact my Vet but he has not called at all!
I am to mail in copies of the Vet bills and some accounting firm representing Purina will consider making some sort of payment, maybe if I qualify. I told the rep if Nylablue dies because of poisoned cat food, there will be ** to pay! I was a loyal Purina customer for 40 years and to be treated with such disdain was unforgivable. I am sharing my story with everyone I know who has a cat or dog because now that I have experienced this, I want people to know Purina's food is no good! I am praying Nylablue will survive. God help them if she doesn't!
I purchased Beyond One Cat Food from a jewel store which I shop at often. When I got home, there was a $2 coupon inside the bag that was expired. I was so embarrassed when I tried to use it on my next visit to the store to find out that it was expired! I am not one to complain, but I spend the extra dollar on my pets' food to get top quality! I also have a dog, along with my 2 cats. So I actually put my pets' health into Purina's hands! I am letting my friends and family know of my disappointment with your company and its product! Pay attention to your consumers and their pets!
I have bought my three cats Purina dog food for years and have never had a problem until yesterday. I fed my cats the Deli Cat Purina dry food and 5 hours later, one cat was foaming at the mouth, my other two cats were on their side having multiple seizures. I took one cat to the clinic and the vet told me that the cat's condition was similar to insecticide poison. I would be more inclined to believe the insecticide if it wasn't for my indoor cat Bernie. Bernie has not had any contact with the other two outdoor cats and has never gone outside ever. They all ate the same food at the same time though and they all had the same symptoms at the same time.
Luckily, my indoor cat Bernie may survive but it looks like he has permanent nerve damage in his back from the seizures. Sadly, one of my outdoor cats has already died and the other cat is still having seizures. I'm extremely hurt and saddened that I unknowingly gave my cats this deadly food. The best I can do is to try and warn other pet owners that there is something fatal in Purina dry foods that are killing our pets. I will never buy Purina again and advise others not to do it also.
