cooperation with FDA, P&G determined that
some products made at this facility have the potential for
salmonella contamination. As a precautionary measure, P&G is
recalling all products made at this facility.
Consumers
who have purchased the specific dry pet foods listed should discard
them. People handling dry pet food can become infected with
Salmonella, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands
after having contact with surfaces exposed to this product.
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 have decreased appetite, fever and
abdominal pain.
If left untreated, pets may be lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody
diarrhea, fever and vomiting. 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.
