Summary

Primal Pet Foods Inc. is recalling 52 cases (1,248 pounds) of its Feline Turkey Raw Frozen Formula because a lot of the 3-pound bags was found to be low in Thiamine (Vitamin B1). Thiamine is an essential nutrient for cats, and a deficiency can lead to serious health issues over time. The affected product is sold in 3-pound bags containing 1-ounce frozen nuggets and was distributed to retailers in California, Florida, Hawaii, Minnesota, Missouri, New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.

Risk

Insufficient Thiamine in a cat's diet can cause Thiamine deficiency, which may lead to gastrointestinal or neurological symptoms, including decreased appetite, salivation, vomiting, weight loss, head tilting, circling, or seizures.
