Actually, according to my rep yesterday they've changed their mind after all.  Don't panic yet.

Pfizer to divest its animal medicine division:

<http://www.animalpharmnews.com/business/companies/Pfizer-confirms-intention-to-divest-animal-health-division-318189?autnRef=/contentstore/animalpharmnews/codex/a97a8b19-a8a7-11e0-b701-4f12144b74c2.xml>

Such choices can cause temporary medication shortages or sometimes
permanent loss of a medication choice. That problem was encountered
several times in recent years because of divestitures, sales of segments
of some animal medicine divisions, and because of mergers of companies
making animal medications.
