To be fair, I've written the Beijing company to let them know I've posted this blog--but no response. Bill<BR/><BR/>From: bl...<BR/>Subject: Whiskas<BR/>To: amoybill<BR/><BR/>Hi, my cat Tomas died recently and I think it might have to do with Whiskas<BR/> <BR/>I fed my two cats some canned Whiskas a couple of weeks ago and they didn't even finish it... I remember I was surprised because both my cats are hearty eaters but they seemed to be turning up their noses at it. I thought it was because Whiskas isn't their usual brand; I had substituted it because the supermarket didn't have their usual Friskies in stock.<BR/> <BR/>A few days later, Tomas appeared lethargic, and was running a fever, I fed him some antibiotic and it didn't go away. By the time I brought him to the vet, he was having respiratory problems, and one day later, he succumbed to cardiac arrest while we were trying to hook him up to an IV.<BR/> <BR/>We had our other cat Missy tested and now she has been diagnosed with liver disease and borderline kidney damage. <BR/> <BR/>Both cats were the picture of health before I fed them the Whiskas, or at least they didn't exhibit any signs of illness.<BR/> <BR/>Unfortunately I did not have Tomas' remains autopsied, and I did not keep the can of the Whiskas I fed them. We do have Missy's blood test though...<BR/> <BR/>Let me know if you have any findings on Whiskas, I really want to find out if it caused my cat's death. I don't know how else my cats could have gotten this sick, they're given the best care...<BR/> <BR/>Thanks<BR/>Bl.
