The toy “Snuggling Furry Friend,” sold as a private brand under the Petco label, was found to contain traces of Trimethyl Benzene, Arsenic, Cadmium and Lead, along with Naphthalene, the main ingredient in moth balls.

Thanks Leslie for letting us know about this!!

This is why I try to find toys made here in the USA. Our furbabies put all of this stuff in their mouths. Ella rips stuffed toys apart if I am not looking; so it really makes me be cautious.

I think I posted an article a ways back talking about toys made in China. This article also said how bad tennis balls are especially when they are wet--it has something to do with the glue. :eek:

Petco and Petsmart mostly have toys made in China. Even the Kong products are made in China--except for the original Kong.
