Savage Pet Recalls Cat Food Over Bird Flu
Cat owners take note, as there is a new recall on cat food from the brand 'Savage Pet.' The company is recalling both large and small chicken boxes due to concerns over bird flu. These products were distributed to retailers across California, Colorado, New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington. The recall was initiated after the FDA raised concerns about potential contamination with bird flu. While no human infections have been reported, the FDA advises pet owners who have fed their cats these products to monitor for any symptoms of bird flu. Bird flu in cats is rare, but symptoms to watch for include respiratory issues, fever, and lethargy. If any of these symptoms appear, owners are encouraged to consult a veterinarian immediately. The affected products were sold in specific packaging and batch numbers, which are listed on the FDA website. The recall affects both large and small boxes of chicken products from the 'Savage Pet' line. Consumers who have purchased the affected products are urged to return them to the retailer. More details on the recall and further instructions can be found on the FDA's official website. Owners can also check the Savage Pet website for updates on the situation.
