Hartz brand for cats and dogs RECALLED
With the recent recall of its Vitamin Care for Cats and a previous
recall on its Flea and Tick Drops, consumers should be ware when
purchasing products produced by the Hartz Mountain Corporation.
Numerous reports from cat and dog owners have claimed that such
products caused the deaths of their pets. There is even a website
devoted to the victims of Hartz, where owners share their personal
stories of their experience from using Hartz products.
Hartz is voluntarily recalling a second specific lot of Hartz Vitamin
Care for Cats due to concerns that bottles within the lot may have
been potentially contaminated with Salmonella. Hartz recalled a
specific lot code of Hartz Vitamin Care for Cats last November due to
similar concerns. Both lot codes were manufactured for Hartz by UFAC
(USA) Inc. in 2007, and were removed from distribution last November.
However, bottles from the second lot had been shipped to customers
prior to their having been removed from distribution.
The product involved is 739 bottles of Hartz Vitamin Care for Cats,
lot code SZ 22771, UPC number 32700-97701. While normal testing
conducted by Hartz and UFAC has not revealed the presence of
Salmonella in any Hartz products, recent sampling conducted by the FDA
did detect the presence of Salmonella.
Previously, in December of 2002, thousands of illnesses and deaths in
cats and kittens led to a recall of some of Hartz' flea and tick
products. Hartz Advanced Care Brand Flea and Tick Drops Plus for Cats
and Kittens and Hartz Advanced Care Brand Once-a-Month Flea and Tick
Drops for Cats and Kittens was pulled from shelves after numerous
accounts of pets suffering from adverse effects from the products.
Complaints included minor problems such as skin irritation or hair
loss at the application site to more serious effects on the nervous
system, such as tremors, convulsions and sometimes death.
Despite countless complaints, the Environmental Protection Agency
(regulatory body) will not close down the Hartz Mountain Corporation.
Therefore, a website has been created to allow pet owners to share
their stories of using its products and to educate the public on the
risks of using its products. Please visit their website at www.hartzvictims.org.
Consumers can contact Hartz at 1-800-275-1414 with any questions they may have and to obtain reimbursement for purchased product.

Vet thinks yellow lab was used as bait dog-mouth tied shut--found severely wounded-Please donate if you can!
This story is from a group I am in:
I just stopped by the Cherokee County Animal Shelter with Mary Carpenter
from Saving Gaffney Pets and there was a yellow lab there that had been
hit by a car or shot or beaten. She had a wound in her chest and a wound
in her backend and she was bleeding profusely... Out of her nose and
mouth and both wounds. Her paws were covered in blood. It was TERRIBLE.
She was attacked by another dog and it looks like
she just rolled over on her back and let the other dog maul her. She is
covered in wounds over her body... The weird thing is that she has
bruises on her face, so the vet said she might have been used as a bait
dog and they tied her mouth shut. It's sick, really. I haven't gotten a
final total on her care yet, but right now it is at upwards of $500.
She needs all the help she can get. I talked with the vet today and she
has three broken bones as well.
If anyone wants to donate, please call (864) 489-8446 (Piedmont Animal
Hospital) in the morning (03/03) and tell them it's for the Yellow Lab
Saving Gaffney Pets is bringing in.
This is the rescue that is currently paying for this poor dog's care:
