Can residents from New York join this lawsuit? I purchased 21 pouches of ol'roy on Feb.13,2007 and had to put my Maggie (dog) down on Mar.8,2007, day before her 11 b-day. I have my reciept and 5 pouches left that are on the recall list. I still can't believe this has happened to all of us. God bless you all and our beloved pets.

I lost 2 cats within 4 days of each other after giving them Nutro Max Gourmet Classics (several varities). And one cat is home & has to have blood work weekly to test kidney levels. I contacted Nutro Max & they want me to send 2 opened cans to their labs. Should I do it? The cans were washed & have been in my home for about 3 weeks. Please help.

Answer from Northern Virginia Personal Injury Attorney Ben Glass: in the nature of general legal advice, you should probably get an in person consult with an attorney in your area who is handling these cases. There are a handful of firms, nationwide, handling these cases.You may want to contact this Atlanta Personal Injury Firm if you are on the East Coast. http://atlanta.injuryboard.com/
