The cat's bloodwork came back within normal levels. The urinalysis showed blood however. The last time this happened she had a huge bladder stone. I hope she and I don't have to go through that again. I'll discuss the results with the vet on Thursday. It does not appear to be a problem from the cat food. I won't be sure until I talk to the vet. It could be a coincidence that she got sick right when I changed her food, but with the large scale of recalled pet food I'm more than a little suspicious. Triumph is known for using good quality ingredients but they are manufactured by Menu and could have had some cross contamination. I was also feeding Felidae at the same time. Canidae has been reluctant to share info on exactly who manufactures their food, so I view them suspiciously as well. You just can't trust anyone nowadays.
Right now the cat is back on Trader Joes and Newmans Own. I emailed Newman's Own and asked if they could guarantee that their food contains only US grown vegetable proteins and they replied:
"Yes. The ingredients in our pet foods are sourced in the US.
