Pet homeowners are the biggest stakeholder in pet meals. Whereas FDA has held conferences with different stakeholders in pet meals for years (a long time), the company has denied us (our stakeholder group AssociationforTruthinPetFood.com) the identical alternative. Till now.
Yesterday (8/25/22) the FDA notified us that they’re prepared to supply us with a “Stakeholder assembly” this fall. The tentative date they advised and we agreed to is September 23. Our plan is for this assembly to start an everyday assembly schedule (quarterly) with FDA.
This assembly (and future conferences) can be to deliver to FDA’s consideration pet meals points that pet homeowners wrestle with – straight from pet homeowners. Thus, at every assembly 2 or 3 pet homeowners, an unbiased pet retailer proprietor, and maybe a veterinarian will take part.
So…for this primary assembly…
If you need to take part within the assembly – please let me know. Since there are such a lot of of ‘us’ that wish to take part – and we will solely have 2 or 3 at every assembly – right here is how we’ll initially slim it down:
- You’ve a selected pet meals subject you wish to share with FDA. This may be something – out of your expertise of a sick pet, a pet dying, labeling – something you imagine is/was associated to a pet meals or a pet deal with. Or if in case you have a selected query about pet meals you’d like FDA to clarify their place on.
- You conform to be well mannered and respectful in expressing your pet meals subject with FDA. (Imagine me, I perceive this may be troublesome. However, we wish to proceed a dialogue between FDA and pet homeowners. We have to be respectful at every assembly.)
- You might want to be accessible on September 23, 2022 throughout enterprise hours (Jap Time). Nonetheless, that date might change – flexibility is perhaps vital.
- The assembly can be digital. You will have to have a robust web connection to connect with the assembly. And have a fundamental understanding of how to connect with/take part in digital conferences.
If the assembly will be recorded (I’ll ask), the video can be shared with all pet homeowners. If not, particulars of every assembly can be shared right here on TruthaboutPetFood.com.
If you need to take part, please use the contact type explaining the problem/query you wish to share with FDA.
Wishing you and your pet one of the best –
