Purina Wet Food = Sick Kitten

Trudy from Waikanae

Just wondering if anyone else has had a bad experience with Purina 'Oscar - As Good As it Looks' Kitten (or Cat) wet food sachets recently? Our 9 mth old kitten had multiple bouts of on/off uncontrollable diarrhea over the course of the last couple of weeks with very, very bad smelling wind. Took her to vets (twice -$$$) and nothing showed up except when we stopped her night feed of Oscar wet food and just left her on biscuits it all cleared up. Thinking this was a bit odd I googled this brand and found an article from the UK (www.dailymail.co.uk...) where the same product - but called Felix instead - had affected thousands of peoples pets. Have rung Purina and given them batch details etc from the sachet I had left but they weren't overly concerned.
Just wanted to let people know in case their cat/kitten was experiencing similar issues.
