I'd also like to add that we feed our dog Innova, which is made by Natura Pet Products.

Quote

No products manufactured by Natura Pet Products were implicated in the recent recalls, including the latest recall involving rice protein concentrate.

Our cat food; however, is Spa Select by Blue Buffalo... I was worried until I checked and only one run of their kitten food was affected, so it looks like we're in the clear there as well...

The Blue Buffalo Company has undertaken a voluntary recall on one production run of our Spa Select Kitten dry food. The production code on the recalled product is: "Best Used By Mar. 07 08 B."

No problem

While the following link is for dog food, by reading the information on the site, you can learn a lot about pet food ingredients and what you want to avoid...
http://www.dogfoodproject.com/index.php?page=main

I used to feed our cats Science Diet because that's what the vets recommended, but after reading more about what goes into it, we switched. I also learned that a lot of vets are compensated by various companies at the vet school stage, so there's a reason why they may push or stock one brand more than others. Wink

Hi,
Here's another resource which seems to be serving the same data but rather in a human-friendly, web based format:
