No link between sick US pets and Chinese snacks

CHINA’S top quality supervisor said yesterday that tests had found no direct evidence to connect pet sickness in the United States to snacks made in China.

The General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said its tests — and those of the US Food and Drug Administration — had not found any connection or any poisonous or hazardous ingredients in the snacks, despite claims they were the cause of widespread illness and death in US pets.

It did not say which snacks were under investigation.

The statement came after US retailer Petco said earlier this month that it was pulling all pet treats made in China from its 1,300 stores.
