Canadians who wish to report that their pet has been made ill by the contaminated pet food can leave a message at CFIA vet Hugh Baker's regular office number:
(416) 665-5044
or at his CFIA e-mail address at
bakerh@inspection.gc.ca
If possible he would like to know:
- the owner's name
- the owner's telephone number
- the owner's location (City and Province)
- the species and gender of the pet
- whether the pet has died or is surviving
- the name of the veterinary clinic involved
- the type of food implicated
- where the pet food was purchased
So far CFIA will be unable to do anything immediate for them, but the collection of information MAY be the first step to a constructive response.
