Our 9 mth old kitten had multiple bouts of on/off uncontrollable diarrhea over the course of the last couple of weeks with very, very bad smelling wind. Took her to vets (twice -$$$) and nothing showed up except when we stopped her night feed of Oscar wet food and just left her on biscuits it all cleared up. Thinking this was a bit odd I googled this brand and found an article from the UK (www.dailymail.co.uk...) where the same product - but called Felix instead - had affected thousands of peoples pets. Have rung Purina and given them batch details etc from the sachet I had left but they weren't overly concerned.
Just wanted to let people know in case their cat/kitten was experiencing similar issues.

This was no schoolyard tiff. It was a vicious beating, reportedly using bed legs as clubs to injure the boy. Was Uffindell just too young to be charged with GBH, or was he, as a member of a privileged set, let off lightly and the whole incident hushed up?
Even more amazing is Uffindell's response today. He has spent most of the morning minimizing his actions with the media and sees no reason why he shouldn't stay on in the job. In a performance worthy of the president of Brazil, hes insisting it "was only a little bit of a bashing". Why anyone would consider voting for these thugs is beyond me.
It is this culture of schoolyard bullying that has underscored the National Party's policy on welfare. They are still content to attack those who are the most vulnerable members of our society, indulge in name calling such as "bottom feeders" and roll out the punitive action for anyone who steps out of line. In addition young people in need of job seeker assistance, must deal with organizations deemed worthy by National. Those in the National "pull yer socks up" club, rather than the somewhat more impartial services existing within our government structure. If you are a young person unfortunate enough to have to go to one of these meetings. Don't go alone.

Lions Christmas cakes
Back in 1971, Ernest Adams, New Zealand’s premier baker, created a special Christmas cake recipe exclusive to Lions – the cakes were moist, full of fruit, did not crumble, had a guaranteed shelf life of no less than two years and, most importantly, tasted delicious.
Now, more than 50 years on, the only change is the refreshed packaging.
The Lions Christmas cakes are still baked by Ernest Adams using the original tried, tested, proved and unique Lions Christmas Cake recipe.
• Over 50% Fruit – very rich and fruity
• Full of flavour – not crumbly
• Large 1.2kg cake – 18 x 18 x 5 cms
• Minimum 2-year shelf life
• Great Value! $20.00 per cake
To order and support the Lions Club of Kapiti email your name and address to
