Q: Are any of the pet food items sold at VeryPet irradiated?
No. Below is an excerpt from the Australian Quarantine and Inspection services website:
Can irradiation be used as a biosecurity treatment for pet food?
Irradiation of pet food for cats presents a unique case and because of detrimental nutritional changes in cat food, irradiation has not been used for this commodity since 2009. To address the risk associated with cats being fed irradiated dog food, the department requires, as a condition on the import permit, that imported irradiated dog food be appropriately labelled as not fit for consumption by cats.
The available scientific evidence supports the use of irradiation as a biosecurity treatment for pet food only in exceptional circumstances. It is not supported for those products likely to be consumed as a significant proportion of an animal’s diet (e.g. kibble).
