Just saw online Iams is recalling contaminated pet food. My cat has been sick, lost a lot of weight, loss of appetite, lethargic,vomiting, etc. She was doing better and starting to have an appetite. I feed her the Iams dry food yesterday,she is sick again.Don't know if it's the food, she'selderly,but after checking I learned that Iams is asking food to be tossed as one of their plants produced contaminated food. I've had it with these greedy pet food companies! I'll make her food from now on.
Apologies in advance for any insult, that is non intended. I genuinely don't see any problem with this video. I see female dogs being neutered, and ensuring they can breathe properly, put into a safe area to also ensure they wake up well. No testing of foods, or cruelty or abuse. I agree with eileenbunny. They're kept in kennels, as they would be in any shelter...I fail to see any connection with IAMS or pet cruelty in this...........
iams needs to seriously make changes. before they fucking know it there is gonna be another recall. hopefully nothing will happen... >:O those bastards should hut down for killing alot of animals. they have problems they need to fix. cats & dogs DO KNOT DESERVE THIS!~ it might be 2010, but you never know there can always be another recall!!
Any which way you look at it... ANIMAL FOOD AND OTHER PET PRODUCTS SHOULD BE SAFE IN THE FIRST PLACE !!!!! AND, NOT HAVE TO BE TESTED ON OTHER ANIMALS TO FIND OUT IF THEY ARE SAFE !!!!
well if you have a dog you can buy bil jac food only at petsmart and i used to feed my two dogs iams but we got a free sample pf bil jac and the loved it! im not sure if they make a cat food but dogs will live bil jac
One error: They knew longer than a month before the announcement. Public reports I've seen state that they knew in Sept./Oct. of '06. The first shipment of tainted food supposedly went on store shelves late Sept., early Oct. This was a new product in the manufacturing process from the supplier. Why was there no quality check and spot check?
Iams has tried to stop a PETA video of its cruelty from being shown. I dislike PETAs tactics at many times, as I think they go too far and I can't let my kids see some things they do, and I don't like their attitude to your questioning their tactics. However, sorry to say, but the reports are real. I can't verify that this exact one is, but trust me, some are that are just like this. BTW, veterinary food is not safe. Vet food was included in the poisoning. I lost both persians. Very heartbroken
Every time I see those "I'm an Iams dog" commercials I think, "Yeah...sure you are."
Unfortunately, so many companies out there are so twisted they don't even care about their consumers. You have to be a vigilant consumer or you're going to get what you pay for... Which can mean anything.
we lve in a society where such suffering is hidden away....i wil not buy any dog food that has this base of cruelty....it is shocking to se them in this state to be able to produce dogfood ....it should be governed agaibst by laws to protect them from this vile cruelty imposed on them.
Don't feed you dog anything from a pet "food" company, there are too many lawyers finding loopholes so they can put whatever they want in it...dogs are carnivores, feed them raw meat, bones and organs....look at those teeth...that's what they are designed to do, via Momma Nature....get off price meat at the supermarket, ask your friends for freezerburned stuff....it's soooo much better for them, cos it's REAL food...TR
these dogs should be out playing not in these sick cages where sick demented people look at them and say there ok you know that dog is just bleeding cause he hurt himslef oo look now he is vomiting oo no he sleeping o anit that cute. stupied fucking bastards
What is going on here? I'm searching on youtube for pet food recipes for my cat. I find this film. My God! I'm so shocked and horrified by what I'm seeing here. To think I feed my cats Iams thinking it was good for them as my local vets endorse this product. I'm going to show them this video. Shame on you all at Iams, employers and employees - How do you sleep at night? This product is going in the bin right now.
I've been researched and disturbed by things like this too. Some recommended pet food are Harmony Farms, Halo, Holistic Blend, Paul newman's and Old Mother Hubbard, these companies do no or non harmful animal testing and have no class actions, and low or no recall history, also no artificial preservatives that could cause cancer. I recommend switching to one of these, they have good meat sources too so no icky things!
I cannot bear to watch the video. I came to youtube looking for answers. My dog is ok, but she had some minor convulsions after eating some Iam's food today. The bag is going in the garbage!
hi! You said you were looking for answers...I know some dog food that has no class actions, low or no recall history and do no or nonharmful animal testing and are not connected to pet deaths: Paul Newman's, Halo (Highly recommended has helped many dogs with health problems), Old Mother Hubbard, Life's Abundance. I really hope this helps.
this is shocking. those dogs should be out there with loving families. how hard can it be to make dog food? do animals really have to suffer for advertising? NO. animal injustice makes me so angry. why are humans "more superior"? it's bollocks that is.
They deserve to have a group of people to break in their building and grab every employee and have the guy do the same thing what these people did to these animals.
I don't think i'll protest, but I will certainly discourage people from buying it If they ask me, and I will not buy it myself. Iams is crap anyways. I feed my dog's California natural brand kibble and healthy snacks like yogurt,chicken jerky,raw eggs,and pieces of carrot and apple. It saddens me to know that I supported this cruelty unknowlingly by buying iams dog food for a couple months after we adopted my dog.
We were lucky to save our yellow lab Gigi. The vet told us she didn't have a chance but my mom fed her with barley grass from the health food store with some plain yogurt. I'm sorry if anyone lost their pet.
DON'T BUY IAM OR ANYTHING FROM MENUFOODS-EVER! These nazi wannabes should be in prison, or under the jails! Let me at them. I'll show them what's what real fast!!
Educate yourselves as to what you feed your animals. Most commercial pet foods are not good for your animals. Only use foods that contain human grade ingredients. Google the subject, and learn 'the truth about pet foods'. There is a site called that, and it's very good.
You can make your own dog food. I feed my dog a raw diet. Look it up, the "barf diet". This is not a joke, that's really what it's called.
I've always considered commercial pet food poisonous crap. *all* of it. And I mean *all* of it. Including that stuff that the next guy says is good. It's not.
Don't buy pet food from any grocery store or department store (ie walmart) if you do chances are high that your supporting this industry. Go to a local pet store and ask for their hollistic food chances are they have one. and don't be cheap!!!
I've put my dogs on non-major brand food with all natural ingredients, that is practically human grade (Ziwipeak). Not like the crap the main brands are selling us to put into our dogs tummies.
I have a copy of an email from Iams saying yes that this was their research facility, as I wrote to them about this prior to putting my video up. They have admitted it in writing to me.
I would like to know if this was at Iams or is it just a pet clinic because i have seen this before as bogs that were in a fire and being treated by vets. and dogs in a warehouse being shipped to pet stores. what are they making you believe we are so gullible. I have fed my 4 dogs on Iams for years. Did any of you see the Iams sign anywhere. Anyone can put anything up and say this is what this is give me real Prof
If you read my below response you will see that Iams has already admitted this is their facility - email them and ask if you like, I would not promote something if I didn't know it to be true. If you want to see the email they sent to me PM me on here and I'll send you a copy. Ta.
this is so sad,as a dog,cat,even bunny owner i would like to put them in a cage and do the same things to them.you have a pet to love,care,to enjoy.not be mean,abusive to.what if they decide to start with the human race next.shit they may already be doing that now,just hasnt came out in the open yet!THINK ABOUT IT..
I hear bad things about iams and animal testing over a year ago. I stopped feeding my cats iams then. They are just a lie, a marketing ploy and they are no better than the $3.00 cat food they sit beside. Now this proves it, they are using the same stuff as the cheaper foods use, they all killed. I feed my cats a good food now I get from my vet, Im glad I switched or I could of lost them to this tradegy too. Iams use to have a good name
Don't buy IAMS, if you love animals, don't support what they do with your money. I believe they are immoral and dishonest, it will be interesting to hear what they did or did not know about the "tainted" pet food. I love my pets too much to feed them Iams.
My question is: how do we know that the video's shot of the animals in the cage were in the same facility as the experiments? How do I know that they weren't in a Vet's office or in PETA itself?
if it was iams they would be shut down for animal cruelty. Even when you test on animals it can't go too far to where it's torture. It's the law, in an earlier clip I heard someone speaking in a different language..You sure this is america?
How about all the other companies that use animals for testing of their products? like make-up, cleaning fluids and medicine? I think those are as bad as these guys...
Downright cruelty! Just makes me sick to see people treating living animals in such a horrid way. I hope they get bad Karma down the road for allowing these animals to suffer. Sick!
This is so sickening, I couldn't watch the graphic part. I found one of our neighborhood strays, dead on the street, two days ago ( in Ca.)- anyone else seeing dead strays?
