Viva Raw is recalling 25,247 units of several dog and cat food products, including Ground Chicken, Chunked Chicken, Ground Beef, Beef & Turkey, and Chicken Complete recipes, as well as their Pure Chicken Mixer. These products are being recalled because they may be contaminated with Salmonella or Listeria monocytogenes. The recall includes various 1 lb (454g) packages manufactured in the United States and distributed to distributors in New Jersey, California, Texas, and North Carolina. If you have animal health concerns, contact your veterinarian and return any unused product to the place of purchase for a refund or dispose of it.
The pet food may contain Salmonella or Listeria monocytogenes, which can cause serious illness in both pets and the humans who handle the raw food. These pathogens can cause symptoms such as fever, diarrhea, and vomiting in pets, and may lead to severe infections in humans, especially those with weakened immune systems.
