Alert! Dog And Cat Food Recalled!
If you own a dog or cat or know of people that do, please check the brand of food you are feeding your pet NOW to see whether the food has been recalled. That is especially true if you shop at Publics or Winn Dixie.
A style of food called "cuts and gravy" that consists of chunks of meat in gravy sold in cans and small foil pouches and made between December 3, 2006 and March 6, 2007 has been recalled. A number of dogs and cats have suffered kidney failure and died after eating the re-called pet food. The food is sold under a number of different brand names in stores operated by PetSmart, Inc., Safeway inc., Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., and a number of others , including Publics and Winn Dixie, throughout the United States.
The food was made by Menu Foods for about 17 of the top 20 North American retailers, including Proctor & Gamble. That company and the manufacturer has recalled specific products sold under the Iams and Eukanuba brands. Menu Foods lists all the brands that have been recalled on its web site.
The products recalled are said to be 3 ounce, 5.5 once, 6 ounce, and 13.2 ounce canned and 3 ounce and 5.3 ounce foil pouch wet cat and dog food made by Menu Foods. The recalled products are said to bear the code dates of 6339 through 7073 followed by the plant code of 4197. The recall covers pet food made at plants in Emporia, Kansas and Pennsauken, New Jersey.
