PMI Nutrition International is recalling 985 units of various animal diets, including pet bird, guinea pig, primate, rodent, and fish foods, due to dangerously high levels of vitamin D. The company received four customer complaints, including reports of 7 parakeets and 14 small birds dying, with veterinarian diagnoses confirming vitamin D toxicity. Testing revealed that certain batches contained up to 100 times the intended amount of vitamin D. These products were distributed nationwide in the United States and internationally to Japan.
Excessive vitamin D intake can cause severe toxicity in animals, leading to organ damage and death. In this case, elevated levels have already been linked to the confirmed deaths of 21 birds and clinical diagnoses of vitamin D poisoning by veterinarians.
Full refund available upon return.
