Ask Susan Peters Cat Food Review

Anytime I see a Class Action filed against a company and the products the company produces I would not advise feeding their products to your pets. The pet owners have filed a Class Action against the company for killing their pets.

I don't like to see anything stating natural chicken flavor, this usually means the company has used manure for flavoring. Chicken fat as first ingredient? What are these people thinking trying to pass this stuff off as a good cat food. Shame, shame, shame!
