About Poisoned Pets

Mollie Morrissette is a leading expert in pet food safety and a prominent advocate for animal feed safety in the country. She is the founder and author of Poisoned Pets, an independent online journal focusing on the critical and often underreported pet food safety issue.

Poisoned Pets is one of the most comprehensive resources available on the internet regarding the health risks associated with commercial pet food.

What sets Poisoned Pets apart is its independence from commercial influences. The journal does not accept corporate or government funding or engage in corporate sponsorships or endorsements.

Instead, the advocacy work of Poisoned Pets is entirely supported by private individuals who are not affiliated with the pet food industry or any public or private organizations.

Her work relies on the generous contributions of individuals like you. Your support can significantly impact the safety and well-being of pets everywhere. Thank you for your continued support!
