why is Yahoo running adsin Pets for product that kills pets"?

I know I am very sensitive on this because our cat doed because of the pet food poisioning but it really hurts and is offensive to see a great flashing ad for one of the products FDA says killed pets.

I'm not trying to defend Yahoo or anything, but it seems to me that Eukanuba should have pulled all their advertising. If they already paid for their advertising and haven't told Yahoo to pull it, I think Yahoo is contractually obligated to run it. I agree though. It shouldn't be here.

So sorry for your loss. Eukanuba is a major brand of pet food. Their dry food is fine, and perhaps that is why Yahoo still carries their ads.

Makes you wonder though - Menu Foods makes over 90 brands. Eukanuba and Iams are quite expensive, as is Science Diet and they're made by the same company that makes the el cheapo stuff. Wonder what the difference is.

Probably because Eukanuba is worried that no one will buy their products after they fix the problem, so they are doing an advertising kick to try to have their name out somewhere OTHER than the news. I am not sure i would buy it now. Sorry about your cat.

Eukenuba? I just took my cats off that horrible food.

I am so sorry that you lost your kitty. :(
Are you oin to sue? Join a class action group? I am thinkin that something needs to happen to these pet food manufacturers so that they'll be more careful in the future.

Perhaps Yahoo cares more for money than pets.
