Department of Agricultural Resources (DAR) Commissioner Scott Soares today reminded Massachusetts consumers of a voluntary recall, announced yesterday by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), of select varieties of Nutro Natural Choice Complete Care dry cat foods and Nutro Max dry cat foods.
Nutro Products is voluntarily recalling some varieties of these cat foods with “best if used by dates” between May 12, 2010 and Aug. 22, 2010, according to the FDA. The cat food is being voluntarily recalled in the United States and 10 other countries due to incorrect levels of zinc and potassium, both of which are essential nutritional supplements added to Nutro cat foods. The recall does not affect any Nutro dog food products, wet cat food or dog and cat treats.
The FDA also recommends that pet owners whose cats are pregnant or experiencing health issues should contact their veterinarians.
The FDA encourages consumers who have purchased the affected products to return the food to retailers for a full refund or exchange. For a complete list of the affected dry cat food products or for more information about the recall, call (800) 833-5330, or visit www.nutroproducts.com
