Natura Manufacturing, Inc.: Various Pet Foods and Treats Recalled for Potential Salmonella Contamination

Agency Publication Date: January 21, 2016

Summary

Natura Manufacturing has recalled approximately 9.7 million units of EVO, HealthWise, Innova, Karma, and California Natural pet foods and treats due to potential Salmonella contamination. The recall affects a vast array of dry cat, dog, ferret, and puppy food products sold in various bag sizes from 3-oz treats to 38.5-lb bags. These products were distributed nationwide through specialty pet retailers and online between 2013 and 2014. Consumers should immediately stop feeding these products to their pets and return them for a full refund.

Risk

The pet food may be contaminated with Salmonella, which can cause serious illness in both the animals eating the food and the humans handling it. Pets with Salmonella infections may be lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, and vomiting; humans may experience similar symptoms including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramping, and fever.

What You Should Do

Check your pet food packaging for the brand names EVO, HealthWise, Innova, Karma, or California Natural.
Identify if your product is affected by checking the expiration date printed on the bag; any product with an expiration date on or before March 24, 2014, is included in this recall.
Verify the UPC code on the back of the bag against the extensive list of affected codes, such as EVO Turkey & Chicken Cat Food (UPC 751485414003) or Innova Adult Dog Large Bites (UPC 751485123202).
Immediately stop using the recalled pet food or treats and secure them in a sealed bag or container to prevent access by pets or wildlife.
Wash your hands thoroughly after handling any recalled product, and sanitize any bowls, containers, or surfaces that came into contact with the food.
Return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund or contact Natura Manufacturing at their Nebraska facility for further instructions.
Contact your veterinarian if your pet has consumed the recalled food and shows signs of illness, or contact your healthcare provider if you experience symptoms of Salmonella.
