I, too, have found bones (and other things) in some canned food brands, but they've been tiny fragments. Believe me, if you'd seen the bone that was in my cat's food, it would have disturbed you.Originally Posted by Liberty's Buddy
However, it does not bother me. I have found bones in just about every brand of soft food I have ever used. I always check before I feed it. Merrick's is literally the only brand of soft food Liberty will eat. That says a lot. I have not found bones yet but I did find a blueberry. -kd
Now that you say that I will be searching all my food. No matter wet/dry.Originally Posted by KTLynn

I'm glad that you carefully check Liberty's food.
Last month I noticed a piece of plastic in the Turducken flavour. Since that time I noticed a difference in the texture as well. I wonder if it's just a glitch in a change in manufacturing since I've been happy with the brand for the last year. If so, the quality control right now is very poor for such a facility.Originally Posted by Yosemite
I found a short plastic string-type thing in the Merricks last night. I'm so disappointed in this food now.

Just an update. I received an email from Merrick. After stating my concerns regarding quality control and if there was a change in manufacturing process they stated the following:Originally Posted by KTLynn
The company needs to pay attention *now* to their processing and quality control, before someone's cat gets hurt, or worse.
We keep a record of every complaint and our foreign object complaints are very low. If many people are experiencing this issue, they have not contacted us to report it and I would like to thank you for letting us know as this is how we resolve the issues.
We also have not changed any ingredients, formulations, meat source or anything about this product and do not outsource our manufacturing line.
I've fed my cats Wingaling on a couple of occasions and they absolutely loved it!Originally Posted by vanillasugar
wow, thanks for the warning!
Wingaling and Smothered Comfort dog formulas of Merrick both have bone purposefully. The bones are cooked to a point that they are soft and spongy, basically harmless. Most dogs I've met LOVE these types! Ordinarily, I'd be cautious of feeding ANY cooked bone, as I feel cooking makes it dangerous, but Merrick uses a special process and like I mentioned, these bones aren't hard and brittle, they're very soft.
Our cats love Merricks too, but I don't like sharp bones and plastic in their food.Originally Posted by semiferal
