First I’ve heard of this;

“Just heard from an emailer that *Heartguard* may contain the contaminates, too. This whole contamination crisis goes much more deeply than just pet food. Again, we hear more nonsense from the FDA trying to cover their -——.

The contamination to pet food and livestock feed is MORE than melamine. There is also a chemcial used in swimming pools. When the melamine and this chemical combine, the mixture is quite deadly...a type of binary chemical weapon.

Again, I ask, WHY are we relying on our enemy to feed us? The FDA wants to try to identify potential ‘gaps’ in food safety. Well, one BIG gap is food and food ingredients from China. And that gap needs to be closed IMMEDIATELY.

Will keep an eye out for more info.

Found in forum:

I have spoken to technical staff at
Novartis (Interceptor) and Merial (Heartguard).
Both these heart worm prevention chewables and pills
are OK
They assured me there is no wheat gluten and no rice
in either of these products.
The heartguard uses a corn based thickener and
Interceptor they did not say what they used but were
definite on the NOT wheat nor rice.

The companies say it’s okay.

I think it’s time for me to switch to Ivermec liquid, just in case.
