I would also like to add Smokey to the above list. You can move freely now. RIP Smokey

Hi all. I am from Australia and both my cats are affected with a neurological disorder after eating Orijen (Australia only / do not stress). Part of this disorder makes them 'forget' how to eat/drink. My cats stopped drinking so I rushed out to get the Catit drinking dome (A few people here have...

I am not aware of any symbols in Australia. I know that the term 'Treated with Ionzing Electrons" can be used at times to make it sound better. Unfortunately Smokey, a beloved pet for 12 years lost his battle with the Orijen syndrome 2 days ago, leaving behind his best friend Ginger (Also...

Re: Gamma Irradiated Orijen affected cats - another death Forwarding to Dr Georgina Child and posting on all known public pet forums internationally. Good afternoon, It must be natural for those of you dealing with your day to day business in a commercially viable and scientific manner to...

Hi all. Below is a copy of an email written by the owner of a beautiful Blue Point Siamese cat affected by Orijen. This person is the instigator of our lobbying campaign to the Australian Government. We are asking for a full review of the Irradiation of Foods/Petfoods and labelling laws in...

To the people concerned about customer service. below is a copy of an email I received from the pet food suppliers where I purchased the Orijen from. It is the least we can do to keep our customers updated. I just wish that we were notified earlier about the recall as we have all the email...

Thank you Yosemite. I really appreciate your words of well wishes to all in Australia, I will keep you updated with any new information and as I have always done, stick to facts. I am very aware of the legalities involved. As I have stated before in terms of kibble and what is on Champions...

I am hoping Champion is busy regarding the recalls. Though I can confirm they are not busy responding to us in Australia. Many of our emails have been ignored. Some owners only getting a response after sending them several emails over weeks and weeks. Some owners are also still waiting for...

We really appreciate a reply based on thought and looking at the facts rather than emotion. This does not mean you may agree, I know, but this is all we have asked for. Thank you The only reason we Australians came to your site, filled with cat lovers, was to explain what has happened to us and...

I guess we have been moved. Carolinalima I notice that you seem to be stating what is on Champions website. Their website also states no preservatives. One of their reps stated they found BHA/BHT during their testing. What is your point? Cooking on low temperatures does not preserve ALL...

You can't quote me on this one, but I remember hearing something like it will be cleared up in a few months. Something like this was said by one of the reps (Clark OR Michelle) on Itchmo forums before they disappeared. I was led to believe that they said they would fix the problem but do nothing...

Yosemite We are not letting the Australian organisations/companies off the hook at all. One owner with my full support, has sent many videos containing footage of our poor cats with pretty forcefull messages to all involved. They recieve constant phone calls/letters in regard to our cats and the...

Yosemite I do not know how the laws in regard to taking legal action against your government apply, However this has been done on many occasions in Australia with a favourable outcome. If we had a case against our government we would be pursuing it. If it were only money we were after do you...

I said this is Champion's third recall, not Orijen's. Here is the link http://www.consumeraffairs.com/news03/dog_food.html Although this was not a product under Champion's name, they were the manufacturers. I, like most, thought I had found the perfect pet food company. Champion's website...

Hi all. Peter Muhlenfeld from Champion has written a post on a UK forum in regard to misinformation with this issue. Please note my response, after months of research, pointing out the many inaccuracies with Peter's post. I would now be very concerned in dealing with a company who repeatedly has...
