I have been feeding my ferrets Maxximum Nutrition Kitten Food for years now. Recently, we noticed that the formula seemed to change a bit, and the ferrets got a bit picky with it, but still ate it. Now our Pumpkin is ill with possible kidney disease. I got a news alert via email that Hills is recalling dry food for contaminated gluten, and there was just a mention on television about dry foods are now being recalled for contamination. I am wondering if anyone else feeds this to their ferrets, or even their kittens, and have there been any signs of illness? Also, I am now wondering if dry cat foods are contaminated, what does this mean for dry ferret food? Are there any that I can switch to safely without worrying that are not made by Menu Brands? I am not trying to panic or anything, but this is a concern with Punkie getting sick out of the blue. Joshua is still fine though. I have a call in to the 800 number on the bag, but they are "experiencing a high volume of calls" and will get back to me so I figured in the meantime I could post something here to see if anyone else had had kidney problems with their ferrets recently that came about unexpectedly. Thanks. [Posted in FML 5563]
