Pets in Peril: Recognize the Signs of Poisoning
http://abcnews.go.com/Health/story?id=2964521
March 19, 2007 — Since a number of cases of kidney damage among cats and dogs prompted a voluntary recall of numerous popular brands of pet food, including Iams, Nutro and Eukanuba, many pet owners have begun to worry that their pets, too, may be affected. However, veterinary experts say there are steps that owners can take to ensure their pets' health.
If your dog or cat is exhibiting the following signs, you should seek the opinion of a veterinarian immediately:
Uncharacteristic lethargy
Severe loss of appetite
Vomiting
Profound changes in eating and drinking
Increased urination
If you have been feeding your dog or cat one or more of the products that have been recalled, you should contact your veterinarian and arrange for tests to see if your pet's health has been affected. Here again is a link to the list of recalled foods http://geari.blogspot.com/2007/03/

Pets will not always exhibit signs of kidney damage, so it is best to have them screened for potential problems.
