Procter & Gamble Co: Various Iams Canned Cat Foods Recalled for Low Thiamine (Vitamin B1) Levels

Agency Publication Date: June 1, 2011

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Procter & Gamble is recalling approximately 686,624 cans of various Iams Proactive Health cat food products, including both 'Filets' and 'Pate' varieties in 3 oz and 5.5 oz sizes. Testing revealed these products may contain insufficient levels of thiamine (Vitamin B1), which is a vital nutrient for feline health. Cats that are fed these specific canned products as their only source of food are at the greatest risk of developing a nutritional deficiency. Consumers should immediately stop feeding these products to their pets and return the cans to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Risk

A lack of thiamine can cause serious health issues in cats, including gastrointestinal signs, neurological symptoms like loss of appetite, weakness, or even seizures in severe cases. This recall was initiated after diagnostic testing confirmed that thiamine levels were below required standards for a complete feline diet.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your cat food cans for the brand name 'Iams Proactive Health' in the 'Filets' or 'Pate' varieties, specifically 3 oz and 5.5 oz sizes.
  2. Match your product identifiers against the following UPC codes: 19014024933, 19014025978, 19014024926, 19014025947, 19014024919, 19014025954, 19014025022, 19014296538, 19014025084, 19014296330, 19014025053, 019014297337, 19014296736, 19014025060, 19014025039, 19014025091, 19014025015, 19014296132, 19014025077, 19014296231, or 19014025046.
