Class Action Filed as to Tainted Pet Foods

SAN RAMON, Calif., March 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Berding & Weil, LLP has filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of all California residents who purchased the pet food that was manufactured by Menu Foods, Inc. and sold under various brand names, including IAMS, and whose pets have become ill or died as a result of eating such food. Menu Foods has recalled all of its "cuts and gravy" wet style of cat and dog food, which was produced in its plants between December 3, 2006 and March 2007.

The suit, filed in San Diego Superior Court, seeks compensation for pet owners who have pets that died or were injured from eating the tainted food, and also the payment of veterinary bills, medicines, special foods, and other costs that will or have been incurred by owners whose pets have taken ill. Recovery of the costs of the food which had to be thrown out because of the recall is also being sought.
