From Hills Pet Nutrition, Inc.:
"In accordance with its over-riding commitment to pet health and well-being, Hill's Pet Nutrition, Inc. is voluntarily recalling Prescription Diet m/d Feline dry food from the market. Hill's is taking this precautionary action because during a two-month period in early 2007, wheat gluten for this product was provided by a company that also supplied wheat gluten to Menu Foods. U.S. Food and Drug Administration tests of wheat gluten samples from this period show the presence of a small amount of melamine. Prescription Diet m/d Feline Dry represents less than one half of one percent of all Hill's products."

I had saw this on the news and looked it up as one of cats is now on a Hill's prescription

This is not s/d but rather m/d. Title needs to be changed because those that have a cat on s/d are bound to see this and draw the wrong conclusion.

Everything is confusing these days...no worries. "SD" is shorthand for "Science Diet"...and "S/D" is short for Struvite Diet, made by Hills/Science Diet. The S/D is NOT recalled. The M/D is.


Not sure what the "M" in "M/D" stands for but....that's the one that was recalled - Hills/Science Diet M/D dry.
