Putting Pet Travel Aside

Monday, March 19th, 2007

Today I am putting pet travel aside; the recall of pet food over the past few days is frightening!  http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17650075/

I don’t think there is 1 pet owner in the United States that was not immediately concerned that this might be something that could affect their pet/s.  I know that Saturday morning I checked every can of dog food I had in the house to be sure that I had never fed Oodles or Soozie any of the ‘recalled products’.  http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17689821/

It certainly is alarming when you put so much trust in products and then find out that possibly you could seriously hurt or injure your pets – unknowingly.  I read briefly some of the comments on the message board of msnbc.com.  One person JTJ wrote: Who cares? They are only animals.  This is so disheartening to me.  It was fun to see how quickly people reacted to this person:
-JTJ should be shot….sounds like you need a real life loser
-And what are you JTJ   A plant?
-They are not only animals.  To people like myself who cannot have kids they are our children.   That’s like saying that human kids are just kids, who cares?  Let them suffer.
-Last I checked we are an animal species.  Obviously you’ve missed being part of the more wise or intelligent of mankind. Good thing your not my pet!
 

Point is-our pets are our lives!  We care about them and it makes us feel good about life and ourselves. 

 

Sorry Oodles and Soozie-we are sticking to the dry food.
