pet food poisonings

The rash of pet food poisonings has been linked to some sick individual at the factory putting a rat poison not normally sold in the United States into the food. Lucky for my pets, I had been thinking of treating them to some canned food, but got busy with work and forgot.

Maybe the best solution is to make your own pet food. It's easy to do. Just get giblets, hearts, gizzards, and other organ meats, cook them, and grind them up. I knew a lady who cooked for her pets every day, and then hand-fed them at dinner time. She has recently passed away, but she was a kind and gentle soul, who left dry food out for the neighborhood strays.
