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. NoSalmonella-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.
