First pets, then kids, then pets again. Geez. I think for both toys and food we should just stick with US-made and/or natural items, such as rope toys or 100% rubber balls, etc.

That really is scary, both for your pets and people in the home - especially children.

I don't trust a single thing from China anymore. Not only do they not care what is in the products they ship to North America, but they have become so powerful that they are able to make the companies they wronged apologize.

I guess we should all just say

"Thank You, China for ridding us of the economic pain caused by the removal of our manufacturing jobs to your country by slowly killing us with the products we now have to buy from you."

It's scary to think about how easy it is to give our animals (or ourselves) things and not really take time to find out what's in them.

*sigh* I am so happy that my buns are satisfied tossing toilet paper rolls around the houseand throwing their food dishes for fun.
