Iams and P&G Cause Animals to Suffer Needlessly - PETA TV on IAMS cruelty
Did you know? The story is still unfolding today...
"For nearly 10 months in 2002 and early 2003, a PETA investigator went undercover at an Iams contract testing laboratory, where a dark, sordid secret was discovered beneath the the dog- and cat-food manufacturer’s wholesome image. Our investigator found dogs who had gone crazy from intense confinement in barren steel cages and cement cells, dogs who had been left on a filthy paint-chipped floor after chunks of muscle had been hacked from their thighs, dogs who had been surgically debarked, and horribly sick dogs and cats who were languishing in their cages, neglected and left to suffer without veterinary care..."
This is the kind of findings people usually don't want to think about - because it's really ugly. But it happens regardless of whether you like it or not. "Luckily, caring consumers know that advances in nutrition don’t have to come at the expense of animals in labs. Help PETA force Iams to end these painful and unnecessary tests, as many compassionate companies have already done."

You can see who the folks at IAMS are here: IAMS staff -- Iams Researchers - They may look nice, but don’t be fooled... Indeed, they look like anyone on the street (normal people). How can these people sleep at night? Don't they have a conscience?
And here is an unpleasant video from PETA TV on IAMS cruelty: video
Why IAMS hasn't been brought down on charges of animal cruelty is beyond me. I guess if you have tons of money, you must be above the law...
It's a shame that with their kind of presence and public image IAMS isn't able to see how putting the welfare of pets above their corporate greed is the way for even the biggest pet food company to survive in the long run. As more and more people finally wise up to their marketing schemes, they're going to lose their dominant marketshare.
