Title: Orijen, worrying information
Post by: Maddiesmum on April 08, 2009, 18:47:49 PM

There is a post on cat chat under health and behaviour which I think everyone should read.  I can't do the link, it wont work but you will find it as Orijen is in the title

Is it about the irradiated food?  There was a problem with some orijen imported into Australia last year due to the policy of irradiating imported pet food.  The problem was specific to food imported into Australia and wasn't a problem with the original food.
