The most recent investigation was in 2003 I beleive. Whether they still test on animals I don't know but I still wouldn't touch IAMS with a barge pole as there are numerous good foods that did sign up and agree to not testing on animals. Burns being one of them. There are also some very good foods that have no links to animal testing but weren't given the chance to sign up. Orijen for example. I know which I'd prefer.
