I have read several places that Almonds can be fatal to hamsters. Why do you recommend this product, which contains an almond, for hamsters?

The product states, "small animal nut knibbler" it does not state anything about an almond specifically. There are many different types of "small animals" and not all of them have fatal reactions to almonds. Plus, this item does not come with anything in the center. That is at the discretion of the buyer/customer.

I tried to check on their website about this and found nothing about animal testing which I also do not condone. You can email them at "help@wattsbeaty.info to ask. I found a website call goodguide.com that does not recommend this product for one ingredient it contains so I will not be buying this product again.

It says for hamsters and gerbils so I think it would be okay to feed hamsters.

I purchased these almonds and like their flavor. I am 100% certain almonds are not (yet) genetically engineered. I am against any genetic tampering with our food supply and follow GE developments closely. There is one variety of apple that is GE, but so far no nuts. These almonds are not organically grown, so they may have been grown with synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, and insecticides. However, the almond itself is protected by a hard shell. You may want to contact the association of California Almond Growers to get more information.

Gloria, I've seen tree squirrels have a snack on them. Due to the increased body mass it will take more munching to have the ultimate effect which should be the same. Tomcat poison is the best I've ever seen. They eat it up and it works. Best regards, Cliff

Not almonds, cashews are fine. The motor burned out after several weeks of moderate to light use.

I would agree with John Dinsmore's answer. Also, I think it would be cruel if this sticky resin got onto the squirrel's feet. Generally, netting will work better. I have seen squirrels consume an entire apricot tree fruit in one afternoon. Good luck on solving the problem.

It is difficult for consumers to know isn't it? Without a list of ingredients, everyone is just guessing. Since this product has been safely used for both a food additive and a homeopathic medicinal for years, it does not seem dangerous in any way. Only Dr. Christopher knows for sure and he's not talking.

I am glad you are questioning this product it did not tast very good first of all then I saw there was carrageenan in it!!! The things healthy people have to understand is how bad carrageenan is (cancer causing) and the manufacturers of "organic foods put this horrible thing in yogurts soy milk, almond milk...I can go on and on anyway I pitched the rest of the box when I thoroughly read the ingredients. Be aware of things like this!

The rodents that did eat this and died smelled like rotten sewage. I don't know if it dries their insides but they smell terrible and they don't die quick enough. The poisoned ones wonder out in broad daylight (not good for my commercial space) but they die hidden in places that are difficult to find them.

I so agree, because the one thing they don't show you is the one thing that ended my dog in the hospital for 3 days (and $1,800 in vet bills). The fat content of this is very high. Even with all the research I did, I thought this was a very good food for my dogs, but for one the high fat content took its toll (I do not feed my dog table scraps or other high fat foods; their treats consist of vegetables and on a rare occasion a bully stick). The dog who got pancreatitis was on the fish/sweet potato version of the Taste of the Wild. But seriously, when you are selling stuff online please provide a picture of the back of the bag with the details for everyone to read.

I highly doubt that Hain, a long standing player in the organic foods arena would ever use anything harmful in their products. That said, I would contact their consumer affairs dept and ask them directly!

Karen, I responded that a rodent could chew through this but to further answer you question I don't know that rabbits have the reputation that squirrels or mice have.

Is there ever any rhyme or reason to what cats will choose to eat? Not aware of any changes in composition of the food. Their (Newman's Own) website seems to be pretty up front about their products. You might check there to see if there have been any changes.

It can't be metabolized in a mammal's GI tract; ergo, no calories. I don't think any living thing could actually can digest it; it'd be like digesting rocks, more or less. It's nice to think that a bug might get very obese on it and die of a heart attack, but...I doubt it. lmao

I don't think it would be a big deal... Eating FortiFlora has the same effect on cats that eating yogurt has on humans, really. It just promotes "good bacteria" in the digestive track!
