WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN YOUR PET:

Experts advise owners to call their veterinarian if a pet has eaten recalled food and shows   symptoms of possible kidney failure. An animal could be in trouble if it:

• Stops eating

• Appears tired and lifeless

• Seems excessively thirsty

• Urinates much more than usual

• Vomits

• Has diarrhea

• Seems to have abdominal pain
