Please send a polite e-mail to Iams General Manager Dan Rajczak urging Iams to stop conducting and funding cruel laboratory experiments on all animals and to switch entirely to a humane in-home testing program.
Showing a groundswell of support for the boycott of Iams products, over 100 animal shelters, veterinarians, and companion-animal supply stores have severed their ties with Iams.

The 96 shelters, 34 veterinary clinics, and 36 retail stores across the United States, Canada, and Australia are joining PETA’s boycott of Iams products because Iams confines animals to cages to conduct cruel laboratory tests on them.
While giant retailers and wealthy groups like the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) have decided to profit from Iams’ abuse of animals, these shelters, vet clinics, and stores are refusing to benefit from cruelty to animals. They are insisting that Iams end its laboratory tests on animals and instead rely on humane feeding tests conducted in homes and in veterinary offices using animals volunteered by their guardians.
Many of the shelters, vet clinics, and stores that have joined the boycott have written letters to Iams CEO Jeffery Ansell telling him that they will not purchase, sell, or promote Iams products and are informing their clients and customers about Iams’ cruel laboratory tests on animals as well.
After intense pressure from PETA and its supporters, Iams severed its ties with Sinclair and agreed to end invasive experiments on dogs and cats. Iams also conducts in-home nutritional studies with companion animals who live with their families in homes. But Iams still keeps up to 700 dogs and cats in its Dayton, Ohio, laboratory for nutritional studies. Iams also continues to perform invasive and deadly experiments on species other than cats and dogs. In one study, Iams gave Purdue University nearly $200,000 to conduct a two-year study in which experimenters taped the tails of mice and then raised their hind legs off the floor to cause the animals' muscle to deteriorate. Even though Iams has made some progress, we must continue to send the message that safe, healthy dog and cat food does not require harming any animals. Until Iams agrees to implement 100 percent in-home testing, to stop imprisoning dogs and cats in its laboratory, and to stop paying others to conduct deadly experiments on animals, we encourage consumers to purchase companion animal food from companies that do not conduct laboratory tests on animals.Please send a polite e-mail to Iams General Manager Dan Rajczak urging Iams to stop conducting and funding cruel laboratory experiments on all animals and to switch entirely to a humane in-home testing program.
