FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - August 14, 2013 - The Procter & Gamble Company (P&G) has voluntarily recalled specific lots of dry pet food because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. These lots were distributed in the United States and represent roughly one-tenth of one percent (0.1%) of annual production. No Salmonella-related illnesses have been reported to date in association with these product lots.
Salmonella
can affect animals eating the products and there is risk to humans from
handling contaminated pet products, especially if they have not
thoroughly washed their hands after having contact with the products or
any surfaces exposed to these products.
Healthy people infected with Salmonella
should monitor themselves for some or all of the following symptoms:
nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping and
fever. Rarely, Salmonella can result in more serious ailments,
including arterial infections, endocarditis, arthritis, muscle pain, eye
irritation, and urinary tract symptoms. Consumers exhibiting these
signs after having contact with this product should contact their
healthcare providers.
Pets with Salmonella
infections may be lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody diarrhea,
fever, and vomiting. Some pets will have only decreased appetite, fever
and abdominal pain. Infected but otherwise healthy pets can be carriers
and infect other animals or humans. If your pet has consumed the
recalled product and has these symptoms, please contact your
veterinarian.
This issue is limited to
the specific dry pet food lot codes listed below. This affects roughly
one-tenth of one percent (0.1%) of total annual production. The affected
product was distributed to select retailers across the United States.
These products were made during a 10 day window at a single
manufacturing site. P&G’s routine testing determined that some
products made during this timeframe have the potential for Salmonella
contamination. As a precautionary measure, P&G is recalling the
potentially impacted products made during this timeframe. No other dry
dog food, dry cat food, dog or cat canned wet food, biscuits/treats or
supplements are affected by this announcement.
P&G
is retrieving these products as a precautionary measure. Consumers who
purchased a product listed below should stop using the product and
discard it and contact P&G toll-free at 800-208-0172 (Monday –
Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM EST), or via website at www.iams.com or www.eukanuba.com. Media Contact: Jason Taylor 513-622-1111.
