A Boston law firm filed a class action lawsuit against Menu Foods Holdings Inc., Iams Co., Nutro Products Inc., and other firms for supplying contaminated pet food that spawned an outbreak of pet illnesses and deaths. The lawsuit alleges some deaths could have been avoided had the companies alerted consumers sooner. Wayne, Richard & Hurwitz LLP filed its suit in US District Court in Massachusetts on behalf of two women whose cats suffered renal or kidney failure after eating the contaminated food. The food contained wheat gluten with melamine, an industrial chemical not approved for use in pet food.
