If you have any Royal Canin Food that is on the recall list, Royal Canin has transition diet recommendations that you can switch to.

I know that Medi-Cal is not the best food but ....

Canine Sensitivity RC (rice and catfish)
Switch to:
Medi-Cal Hypoallergenic Formula
Medi-Cal Vegetarian Formula
Royal Canin Hypoallergenic HP

Canine Early Cardiac EC
Switch to:
Medi-Cal Weight Control / Mature

Feline Sensitivity RD (rice and duck)
Feline HypoAllergenic HP
Switch to:

Isn't medical owned by thesame company and RC, or is that technical. If so would there be any point changing if they may well end up recalling the other brand anyways.

I believe that Medi-Cal is owned by Royal Canin.
Pretty scary

This transition diet recommendation was faxed to the vet clinic where I work, so I thought I'd post it as I know alot of people buy Medi-Cal.

Yes, Medi-Cal and Techni-Cal are both made by Royal Canin Canada.

Instead of telling people to transition to the other Medi-Cal formulas the vet should be telling people to feed quality premium/holistic brands like Orijen, Innova, Canidae, etc.

...and why don't they just sell the good stuff anyways . It doesn't make much sense.
