I wish you and your kitty the best. I'm glad she's doing better. I know the stress of this kind of thing. Our kittens got into lilies last year and come to find out lilies also cause kidney failure in cats.

I heard about this recall some time ago, but didn't think much of it as I only offer my cats one 3oz can of wet food per week and that typically not any of the listed brands but rather an organic brand (forget the name of it) that I buy from Wild Oats. Makes me quite glad I switched.</p> <p>I agree with Tomas above, post a pic when kitty's back home. We'd love to see a happy and healthy kitty. :)</p> Glad to hear your kitty is doing well.

I agree with Tomas above, post a pic when kitty’s back home. We’d love to see a happy and healthy kitty. :)

I’m glad to hear that your cat is doing better, be sure to post a pic of her when she gets home from the vet.
