Tried collapsing the template[edit]

but it's protected for potential vandalism reasons. Made a request that it be collapsed by the admins.V.B. (talk) 14:44, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of links[edit]

The links were removed because wikipedia does not allow advertisers to use articles for links to their websites. This may be confusing because another advertising link remained in the article. I removed that additional link, and added a proper reference. Here is started a discussion if the links should remain. They appear to violate wikipedia policy, so keeping them is unlikely. --69.226.103.13 (talk) 00:15, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I added references from secondary sources to demonstrate an appropriate reference to an article. This may clear up questions about what belongs and what doesn't. Wikipedia's policy on links can be found at Wikipedia:External links.

Usually civil discussion on the talk page of an article about removed links is a good idea. New users may not understand the policy. It is particularly confusing, in my opinion, when one set of external links is removed, but other external links equally violating the policy are allowed to remain. All have now been removed. --69.226.103.13 (talk) 00:48, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That's cool. Personally I agree that PetsMD isn't a massively authoritative source. Gordonofcartoon (talk) 01:07, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The books might also help some writer expand the article. They're all available on google books. --69.226.103.13 (talk) 01:36, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Plastic food bowls[edit]

I can't find this information in any sources. Could someone invested in the article source it first, then return it:

Food allergies

Plastic food bowls

Plastic food bowls are a primary cause because they are porous, and bacteria can lodge in the crevices. The bacteria remain there, safe and inaccessible even to the dishwasher. Contact between the cat's chin and the bowl allows these bacteria to infect the cat's skin. The problem is made worse by the coating of oil and bacteria found on all dry foods. Brushed stainless steel and aluminum can also harbor bacteria (as well as holding an electrical charge that can sting your cat with when the static discharges).^{[citation needed]}
