PLEASE BE CAREFUL FOR ANYONE WHO USES “BLUEBUFFALO” FOR THEIR DOGS!!

@k9kesi

And cats.  Blue Buffalo killed @sidneystrange ‘s cat.

THIS THIS THIS!!

I’ve been telling everyone I know for YEARS not to buy Blue Buffalo.

This is the short story:

A few years ago I took my sick cat, Ankh, to the vet. The vet and vet tech asked what I fed her. I told them Blue Buffalo. They looked like I had just told them I fed her razor blades and cyanide. They diagnosed her with pancreatitis and said that nearly all of the cats they’d been seeing lately with pancreatitis were being fed Blue Buffalo.  They gave her medicine and sent her home.  Two days later she had a seizure and died right in my arms. 

The day after she died Hannibal started displaying the same symptoms she had so I panicked hard and took him to the vet.  Got the same meds and the same diagnosis.  Luckily Hannibal survived.

I wish Ankh had survived. She was only ten and the best cat I’ve ever had. Literally the best and five years later I still cry when I think about her.

FUCK BLUE BUFFALO.

I don’t know the full story behind the tweets above, but a Google search shows there HAVE been several recalls regarding this brand, especially in 2016. I would absolutely avoid as it is not worth the risk.

@ladycyon

Good god thank you so much for sharing this because I’ve lately been considering switching to this brand cus it’s supposed to be so much better than all the others but good god what the hell.

I worked in a vet for a little while and I shit you not, when a dog came in with constant diarrhea they were always eating Blue Buffalo. We changed the food and the dog got better every time. Blue Buffalo is garbage food and never feed it to your pets.

I’ve never heard of this brand but I love my dog with all of my heart and I’d be broken if I ever accidently fed her this and got her sick (people give me different dog food to try all the time). I’d hate for anyone else to lose their pet also.

um?? what the fuck? holy FUCK my boyfriend and I were just about to start feeding our cat blue buffalo omg

Wft really?? Im never going to buy that killer food!! Praying for your pets!

I’m so glad I know this, I’d be heartbroken if my dog died

Taste of the Wild used to be our go to but it has been bought by Diamond Pet food company and they’ve been changing things without telling the greater public. If you go to taste of the wild’s website you won’t find mention of this parent company till you search: taste of the wild recalls. Which have happened but not as recent as Blue Buffalos recalls. Because of this (and our dog having cancer and needing better food) we go with Legacy dog food which is made in Canada and right off the bat has no GMOs and it’s first ingredient (for the type we get) is salmon, then salmon meal, then peas, etc.

Please do no just buy a dog or any animal’s food without checking it out first! ALWAYS LOOK AT THE NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION, if the first ingredients aren’t food you’d eat, don’t feed it to your animals!

What our animals get:

Legacy with Salmon, for the dog, plus all her suppliments.

Earthborn wet and dry, for the cat. Earthborn is made in facilities that can human food and is up to human consumption standards.

Neither of the^^ above dog and cat food brands have EVER had recalls.

Brands to avoid to save your pets life and health:

PURINA! Any and all type, causes renal and kidney failure among other horrible things leading to death.

BLUE BUFFALO, mold in bags and has caused animal deaths.

Taste of the Wild, recalls for salmonella in the past, no recent ones but quality has been only declining in past years since being bought out.
