After everything I've been through with both my dog and cat, it's so nice to feel like there are people out there sticking up for pets and pet owners. And EWG is just amazing. I know they are going to make a difference. I know!

Her blood test revealed higher than normal levels of a liver enzyme, indicating that she had had some sort of toxic exposure at some point. While she's in good health overall her liver damage is still significant--what caused it? We will probably never know for sure, but it could certainly be related to contact with/consumption of products we assumed were safe. It's great to hear that somebody is taking interest in this issue. I recently brought my cat to the vet’s office for an unrelated health problem.
