| 25. Menu Foods makes Wellness, which I have been feeding my cats... |
|
...supposedly it isn't made at their Canadian facility and the vats are cleaned beforehand.
Wellness doesn't have by-products, and I doubt it has the euthanized pets, roadkill, and sick cattle that some of the cheaper brands supposedly use as their meat source. We do need labeling. I don't want to buy anything from China if at all possible, esp. food, and don't want pets killed at "shelters" and sick cattle in the pet food I buy.
