Providing food and other necessities for pets has become a huge business. There are now hundreds of firms that sell pet foods and perhaps partly thanks to the novel arguments surrounding their products Iams pet food is among the best known in the industry. Iams provides a range of pet foods especially for cats and dogs and also has a range of other pet care products.
The company claims that Iams pet food are made to meet hygenic and ethical requirements. Iams also has an employee pet borrowing scheme and claims more than 85% of pets used by the firm were adopted by the employees. Iams pet foods are of extremely high quality according to the firm and the firm also has a pet health and nutrition centre. Iams pet food has thus been defended by the representatives of the company and they give the impression that their products are good from any viewpoint.
Whatever the company says, critics say pretty different things. The common accusations for Iams pet food company is that they carry out unethical food testing and experiments on animals plus their company owned animals are not properly taken care of. The picture they give of Iams pet food is indeed a very harsh one.
These very vocal critics of Iams pet food have constantly advised consumers not to buy any Iams products and many billboards have appeared all over the country accusing Iams of animal cruelty. Due to the pressure upholstered by protestors the company has taken measures to restrict their tests only to the premises. According to PETA although the allegations improved the quality of Iams pet food, they are still far from being excellent and up to the standards.
The heavy claims such as flushing live kitten down the drains allegedly practiced by Iams pet food company can be far from true. However there may be several ground in the allegations and it is also unlikely that Iams pet food is developed under pure terms. But the lesson to learn is that the public voice speaks a lot on behalf of the little dogs and kitten who cannot voice their own thoughts at face of cruelty.
