Everpet
Reviews and Complaints

Everpet uses the cheapest products from China. My dachshund was accidentally left alone with a nylon deer antler and has spent the weekend in surgery to repair her small intestine. Any company that would even consider putting a toy of this nature near a dog should not be in business.

I bought a large Ever pet dog bed for my dogs and I washed it just as it says and, I wound up with holes in the backing!
I had to use duck tape on it.

I opened my bag of dog food the food was mold all on it.I always use the brand just made me very upset.and bag Say's sell by Jan 2013.

The food caused my cats to go into kidney and liver failure and die. Don't ever buy this food! They are poisoning our babies. I am so devastated right now. How do they get away with this?

Comon Sense, bought friday by sunday started to get sick by wednesday acute kidney failure and is in hospital. Just because I bought this does not make me a bad pet owner,

Bought food on Friday, fed, Friday, Saturday, Sunday she started acting weird, Monday still acting weird, Tuesday hiding then vet, she has been hospitalized for days, now the food is being analyzed. I bought that food cuz they were out of purina. If I would have known this before hand I would have never bought it!

I fed for 3 days Everpet Dry cat food! Now my cat is dying from kidney failure! I am filing a complaint with every possible agency I can find!

in addition, they have the worst rating of 1/5 for nutritional value. It is basically the lowest of the low in pet food quality, and is not worth saving a dollar.

Everpet has tons of complaints for killing pets. If you care about your pet, do not buy it.

Everpet is probably the lowest of the low in quality. How anyone can give it to their pet is beyond me.

Just do some google searches for the word "Everpet" and you should've seen the tons of horrible complaints and reports of animals getting sick and dying from eating it.

Their main ingredient is cheap corn, which provides absolutely no nutrition at all, instead it just makes them feel full. They may as well be eating dryer lint.

If you care at all about the health of your pet, do NOT give them Everpet just to save a dollar.

Unless you had a vet check them out, I do not see how you can blame the food.
It is possible that the first cat came down with something and in turn the next cat got sick from the first.
You might want to get them, and the healthy cats, checked out ASAP.

Sounds awful. I've read a few stories about the Everpet brand, none of them good. They don't even have a website!? Have a read of pet food ratings, there's so many issues with their products - http://www.petfoodratings.org/dry-dog-food/everpet/

I just bought Everpet dog food. The inside of the bag was full of mold. There were also large clumps of green mold in the food. It was disgusting and I am afraid to buy their products again. My dogs are family!

This is a very useful website and I have found good information here and I really appreciate the efforts of the writer of this essay for sharing nice ideas. Thanks! you can also visit this site http://winningskin.net/ for more information.

A maggot will not harm your dog. It's just a bit of protein and fat for him...

Karen - I am sorry for your loss. I live a few miles away from Hudson and experienced problems almost instantly with my cat. You might want to read my posting (Name: Harley's Owner). I suggest you keep a sample of the food in a sealed baggie and make a note of all the pertinent information (size of bag, lot number, expiration date, date of purchase, location where you bought it, etc.) before you return it to Dollar General if you decide to do so. When I am at Dollar General and see someone in the pet food section I warn them. On one occasion, a fellow told me that his neighbor recently lost his cats within a few days after they ate EverPet cat food. dc

Darlene, why did you post here instead going to a vet.

haven't heard from them yet but it is still early. I kept all the information, saved a portion of the food so that it could be analyzed later, and returned the food to Dollar General letting them know what had happened to my cat.)

It's really painful to hear about how different DGs don't accept coupons, because we try really hard to accommodate as many as we can. It drives sales. They were wrong to try and make you feel as if it was your fault and we absolutely do accept printed coupons so long as they meet all of our requirements.
The only thing I feel I should mention is the $5/$25 coupon takes a little off of every item, and sometimes the system will not allow us to use a coupon on certain items that already have money taken off of them. A message will appear on the screen that says "Cannot use coupon on discounted item", and in those instances the only way to get the coupon to work is to void the transaction and use the coupon before the $5/$25. It's unfortunate because for the customers who get exactly $25 worth of stuff can no longer use the $5/$25, but it's the only way in this instance. Since you had over $25 anyway it would have worked for you, and if this comes up again and you have enough try using your other coupons prior to the $5/$25 and it should work.

Opened a can of Tuna cat food for my cat he begain to eat i looked down and seen large chunks of bone, large enough that my cat could had chocked on. It worried me, but I am thankful that I caught this before anything came from this matter.

The food and drug administration also takes complaints on dog and cat food. All my animals just got sick from that pet food, which was the first time ever purchasing it . I Contacted the store where It was purchased, then called their corporate store. From there I filed a complaint, then I was contacted by the manufacturer of the pet food. Then I contacted the FDA and filed a complaint there as well. The Store where I purchased the pet food originally wanted to immediately make good and refund my money or substitute another pet food, Same thing with their corporate store. The manufacturer however it was a different scenario, they wanted all evidence shipped to them at my expense. That is when I went to the local FDA. You can call the local FDA or go online to to file a complaint. You will need samples for testing for the Vet, the FDA, and the manufacturer. Do not ship all evidence back to the manufacturer or you screwed yourself. The FDA requires a sample and it normally takes at least 10 days before they decide if they want a sample sent, so you have to hang onto it for a few. My problem was the classic and gourmet dog and cat foods (dry) and the dog treats. Good luck to you, and I will think twice about switching up brands on animal feed because of circumstances.

My 9 year old healthy female cat has been eating from a huge bag of ever pet dry food and ever pet canned fish which a friend gave me and now is hiding and not eating snd diagnpsed with fatty liver and suspected feline hepatitis. I have never fed her this cat food before.

My cat was diagnosed with fatty liver n the only difference has been ever pet dry cat food and canned food..she is hiding and refusing to eat

Please, stop feeding your cat this food! Please immediately take your cat to the vet.

We bought this pet food from dollar general and fed our three year old cat Baby it several times then she started showing the same symptoms that everyone else has described - Dollar General murdered our cat, they will kill yours too... evil sick monsters.

We miss our cat you Corporate idiots! People have been complaining for YEARS that this pet food kills cats and yet they still sell it?! Seriously?

If there is ever a class action lawsuit against Dollar General and Everpet, please email us as we want to take part. da vid and ra chel webb at yah oo dot c om.

I know that Todd J Vasos is the CEO of Dollar General and his email address is tvasos@dollargeneral.com from a quick google check so I'm sure he'll love to hear from all of us about his corporation murdering our cats so please feel free to send him your kind regards as I'm about to as well.

Today my second cat that was less than two years old died. I was feeding them the everpet brand. They became listless, eyes looked funny, balance problems, incontinence, and then seizures. I am so pissed right now. Vet believes it's from the food. They freaking poisoned our babies! Want to know what we can do to sue. I kept the food to try to get it tested. Anyone know of lab that does this?

My name is Tanya. My fiance and I recently purchased Everpet cat food. We fed a small portion to our cats Gracie and Kye. Gracie is pregnant . She is now listless and will not eat anything else. She gas been this way since yesterday. Kye will not touch another bite. Something should be done about this. This stuff is possibly toxic

Less than one year ago I put my 16 yr old female cat Diamond on ever pet can n dry food . I bought this garbage at the local dollar general it was cheap n I never thought it would harm her . A couple of months ago she started getting sick she was vomiting n she had diarrhea . It got worse, she started losing weight n getting weak . I just thought she was getting old shes close to 17 yrs . It got so bad she couldnt hold anything in n I found blood in her stool . Something told me to look up ever pet on the internet n I couldnt believe what I found out, I read so many stories from people whose cats either died or got horribly sick with the same symptoms my cat had so I took her off ever pet immediately n im glad to say she seems much better not perfect but I believe shes slowly recovering she vomits periodically but her bowel movement is back to normal . I heard everpet was made in china I dont doubt that for a minute . Ever pet should b removed from store shelves its horrible so many luved pets had to suffer n die n so many owners had to suffer too . Im fortunate diamond seems to b recovering n im glad I took her off that poison when I did id hate to lose her because I was being cheap . Anyone reading this if u r feeding ur cat or dog everpet please stop now before u lose ur pet, they r family to us . Im sorry for all of the people who lost their pets to this garbage .

The tab on the top of the can snaps off when you try to open it. This makes it impossible to open the can.

I also used the Everpet Cat food from Dollar General in the green and white bag and have lost 2 cats with the same symptons. I am very upset to think that cat food would be the cause of my cats death. They were both fine one day and the next day became ill, not eating or drinking much and died within a few hours after that. They died 3 months apart. Please let me know if there is a class act law suit on this product.

I just bought this food on saturday because I was running out of time. I woke up yesterday with a dog that was running a temp and who has vomited all over. He layed around all day. I am throwing this food away!

If they called you at your job- that's illegal and it's harrassment. If they call you more than every three days and you speak to someone, that's illegal and also considered harassment. Threatening you is illegal and that's also harassment. Harassment itself is harassment. What I would suggest is, if you have a family lawyer, go to him for help resolving the harassment and the debt itself. Have him send a "Cease and Desist" letter. After they receive that letter (and all mail is stamped, so they CAN'T say the letter came late). they MUST stop contacting you in any form. If they do, and you can prove it, they may very well find themselves having to pay off your debt and having to give you a little for the harassment. Better yet, have your lawyer send it certified mail. One more thing: find out who your State Attorney's General is. Know their name. Find out the name of who the head of the fraud department is. Even know who the State Attorney's General secretary is. The nex time PCR calls you, tell them that you have contacted the State Attorney's General's office and have spoken to (name of secretary or fraud dept.) about their insistent harassment and that you have sent a "Cease and Desist" letter. That will make them pee their pants, even if they act like it doesn't bother them or say something to try to scare you; trust me, they're shaking like a flag in the wind on the other end of the phone.

sorry for your loss. but, do you have proof that the food killed the dog? or are you making the assumption just because its the last thing that the dog had done.

my dog has red poop. he is a 3month old rottie/aussie shepard mix named anderson jones. he has been on everpet dog food for two weeks. strangely enough i lost a puppy 8 months old two weeks ago, her poop was red bu t she had parvo. his poop is the same color but acting normal and fine. is it the dog food that is making his poop red?

what should I do when a 5 week old ate some of your everpet kitty litter and then its made of clay granules and she is acting funny- sick like?

EverPet kills! Two of my dogs got sick...one died. Vomiting, diarrhea, seizures, then death. Look up EverPet food...then complaints. You will be surprised...Unfortunately, I was too late finding this out. I was using EverPet gravy dog food. Don't use this product!

I bought Everpet Moist soft food. And it was as hard as a rock. My little Pomeranian couldn't even eat it. I am very dissappointed it this product. i will be sure to tell my friends not to purchase a product that false advertises like this one. Moist isnt the word for sure

Your dog has stools like that and you're posting to a complaint board? Get it to the vet!

I purchased a bag of this dog food for my two apbt's. One is (was) 50 lbs and the other is 70lbs. My smallest dog, who is very active, has lost a significant amount of weight since being put on an everpet diet. This dog food is most certainly less than desirable for anyone who cares for their dogs. It makes me sick to be honest, and I would demand my money back had I not thrown away the reciept. I will include a photo of my dog (buddy) after being on everpet for a week, maybe less.

I had two cats die a painful, horrible death from eating everpet dry cat food in the blue bag. They trusted me to take care of them and now I feel guilty and so sad because of how they died. Don't tell me I shouldn't own a pet if I bought this brand of food. You shouldn't have a pet yourself if you are that hard hearted. My middle finger go's up to you.

our cats woulden"t eat it so we gave it to some stray cats and they would not eat it either. we have opossum that comes around and he even walked away from it that's pretty sad from fl

Does anyone know if there is any recalls on "everpet cat litter" or "meow mix cat food"?
my cat loves these but if there is any issues with these items I want to but something better for him when I go shopping in a couple days. please if anyone knows let me know and thank you so much.

To: Angela McDowell, how dare you tell someone to get rid of their pet. As bad at the economy is people can barely afford to feed themselves. Pets are like kids, if someone couldn't afford to buy their kids the best food and got what they could afford would tell them to give them to someone better? No, you wouldn't. So shame on you for being rude and mean.

Dollar General has discontinued selling Everpet Canned Gourmet cat food in the 3oz cans in Louisiana. I have a diabetic cat and researched low carb cat foods and Everpet was one of the lowest in carbs...which a diabetic cat needs. My kitty will ONLY eat the Gourmet Everpet and she loves it. She has gained weight and we check in with the vet weekly for sugar checks and she is healthy for a diabetic cat. I did call Dollar General Corp. and they said discontinued could just be in my area or a contract dispute with the company Everpet..out of Canada. I do not buy any other Everpet products except the puppy pads...as my cat doesn't use the litter box...just the puppy pads. Yes...puppy pads.

I purchased Ever pet Cat food in the Pouch 12 in a box @ Dollar General 4.00 dollars ! when I got home I only had 9 pouches of food so I lost 25% of what I paid for I don't think I'll buy this Brand again...My Tom is very picky and he did eat the tuna ..so It must taste ok ..Just Hoping it want make him sick after I read the reviews

Re: gkenigmatic comment: It's Dollar General...what do you expect? If feeding your pets is such a financial hardship that you have to buy the cheapest food available, maybe it's time to give them to someone who can better care for them.
Shame on you! That is why people have pets because they are loyal, non-judgmental FRIENDS ~ thick and thin kinda thing.
As for Everpet dry cat food, we call it Neverpet; if your cat doesn't run away from home it will die from starvation! Neither the cats nor the dogs will touch this stuff. Not even TRY ONE PIECE! I threw it out to the edge of the corn field 3 days ago, IT'S STILL THERE! Even WILDLIFE won't eat it! It's raining today; I hope it is at least biodegradable.
We live on a farm with 21 cats. Before you send out the TV crews, it is a huge spread and all but three senior citizen cats live in the barn. These cats have come to live with us because: a 92 year old neighbor outlived her cats, another friend (age 37) has gone into hospice, some idiots just dump cats out here to fend for themselves. The cats are happy, healthy & loved but I lost my job due to budget cuts. Neverpet seemed a viable solution to my greatly reduced finances and my responsibility to feed these cats. I have learned this: SAVE that $7, scrape together the extra $1.99 and buy Purina!
