TALES
Pet guardians in the United States and Canada are still on red alert.
Earlier this year, they suspected something was horribly wrong, yet they could not put their finger on it.
They had no way of knowing sixty million containers of pet food, in stores and in their homes, were contaminated.
Tragically, Pet Tips 'n' Tales columnist, Mary Ellen "Angel Scribe's" four Silver Persians, seen above, became seriously ill. Within days, friends' pets in Ohio, California, Washington and here in Cottage Grove began exhibiting odd unhealthy symptoms. We began our search to bring back our cats' good health by taking Myster E. to Veterinarians. They said he had food allergies.
With the same symptoms happening to friends pets around the United States, we knew it was more than food allergies. How could four healthy Persians begin throwing up day and night, develop diarrhea, lose all the fur off their winter ruff, in three days, making them bald...all at once?!
It was obvious this was not seasonal shedding, but a serious health problem. One cat's skin erupted into massive amounts of scabs like chicken pox. One began urinating around the house.
In the only way they could, they were showing us something was wrong!
TIPS
We changed their brands of food, again and again, trying to find a solution.
We instinctively knew it was a poisoning, and opened capsules of charcoal from the health food store. After the cats threw up, they would eat charcoal, leaving little black mustaches of ash on their beautiful white faces. Robert Neumann, a Chinese herbalist and founder of The Vital Connection in Tacoma, Washington phoned, "Mary Ellen, consider feeding your cats fresh, raw chicken or raw tuna, a dash of sea salt, a little water, and small amounts of finely chopped broccoli. I believe this will flip their health around. Ask yourself, 'What would my pets eat in the wild?' Feed them that and their health will return." www.TheVitalConnection.com Desperate, not trusting canned and dried cat food any longer, as every day the FDA continues reporting a new brand containing the offending Chinese wheat gluten, contaminated with melamine...we tried what he suggested. The results were outstanding! The cats health immediately returned. They became alert, their missing fur grew back, their stomachs settled, the litter box was once again in normal use. In reflection, when our cats refused to eat their food, the third week of January, we were upset as it had cost us money, and we thought they were finicky. We have since learned to appreciate the cats' sense of smell, and discernment, when a can or bag of cat food is not healthy for them. Not listening to them, nor observing their actions, nearly cost them their lives. Cottage Grove Veterinarian Dr. Michelle Kenna suggests pet guardians watch for, "Lethargy, lack of appetite, vomiting, and an increase in drinking and urinating. If you have any concerns, have your pets evaluated by your Vet. Kidney failure is serious." For more information Dr. Kenna suggests visiting www.oregonvma.org Creswell, Veterinarian Dr. Lisa Piccioni, who is certified in animal chiropractic care says, "When an animal experiences poisoning, repeated vomiting misaligns their spine and position of their stomach. Consider having them realigned by a professional animal chiropractor to help aid them in returning to a healthy state." www.pawsitivemotion.com Cleveland, Ohio animal scientist and researcher, Dr. Agnes Thomas suggests, "Search for animal cook books at local bookstores. These books have nutritional information and healthy recipes to prepare for your pets. Fox News reports sales on cook books for animals have skyrocketed. Consider cooking your pets meals, until the FDA gives the word that all contaminated food is recalled, and any new pet food is tested. www.PetsTellTheTruth.com Home-cooked food is good for pets, but they also need some healthy nutrients specially formulated that are included in canned food. Use safe brands of pet food as a supplement. Mary Ellen's cats are also eating Fancy Feast." Daily, pet food recall information can be found on www.petconnection.com And Fox News lists new contaminated foods www.FoxNews.com The FDA has a complete listing of recalled pet food brands, dog biscuits and treats, as a service to consumers: www.fda.gov Pet Adoption info: www.PetFinder.org  Swimming Cats on TV
