Procter & Gamble has issued a massive recall in the U.S. of both Iams & Eukanuba foods for cats and for dogs due to salmonella contamination.
________________________________________________________________
Salmonella can cause severe illness in cats & dogs and cross-contamination to humans is possible resulting in serious illness.
- Here is good information on the symptoms & treatment of salmonellosis in dogs & cats. Check it out so you know what to look for and how to treat it!
- The FDA has information on safe pet food handling to prevent food born illnesses like salmonella.
- The Centers for Disease Control & Prevention has a very informative page on salmonellosis in humans. You can get slamonellosis from contaminated pet food and from sick pets.

If you have affected product, stop using it and discard it. For a replacement voucher, clip the code date and the UPC from your bag and mail to the address below. Include your complete address and telephone number.
If you have multiple affected bags, they want you to include a “register receipt with the code and UPC.” I think that’s a shitty way to do business! Other company’s recalls haven’t required this. Boo on Procter & Gamble—I’m not impressed!
