Pet food manufacturers deny using any risk meat materials in pet food, however this article proves otherwise. Pet food ingredients 'meat and bone meal', 'meat meal', 'animal digest', and ''by-products' (in any variation) by their legal definition can contain risk meat material that is rejected for use in human foods. At USDA meat processing facilities, cattle entering the plant are placed on a mandatory hold for 24 hours before being processed. Any animal that goes 'down' - cannot stand - are rejected for use into human food. Downer animals are known risks for BSE or mad cow disease. The intention of rejecting these risk animals into human food is to prevent spreading mad cow disease into the human food chain. Unfortunately, these risk downer animals ARE processed into pet food. This article proves that State Veterinarians are well aware of the possibility of spreading BSE to cattle from eating pet food - they are well aware that pets are eating potentially BSE contaminated meats. The disease has already crossed species to cats and minks around the world. The only suggestion I have for you is to avoid any pet foods and pet treats using meat and bone meal, meat meal, animal digest, and by-products. Article Source: http://www.articlewheel.com
