Wellness Canned Cat Food Recall

Attention! Due to lower than normal levels of thiamine (also known as Vitamin B1), WellPet LLC is voluntarily recalling ALL FLAVORS AND SIZES OF CANNED CAT FOOD!

Although the vast majority of products tested had the appropriate levels of thiamine, to avoid confusion and in an abundance of caution, WellPet has decided to recall all can......ned cat products with the specific date codes noted below. Cats fed ONLY products with inadequate levels of thiamine for several weeks may be at risk for developing a thiamine deficiency. If treated promptly, thiamine deficiency is typically reversible. Though the chance of developing this deficiency is remote, withdrawing these products is the right thing to do and it is being removed from retailers' shelves.

CANNED CAT FOOD WITH THE FOLLOWING DATE CODES ON THE BOTTOM OF THE CAN ARE BEING VOLUNTARILY RECALLED. IF YOU ARE USING ANY OF THESE PRODUCTS, IMMEDIATELY DISCONTINUE USE AND RETURN TO THE STORE OF PURCHASE FOR A FULL REFUND OR STORE CREDIT:

Wellness Canned Cat (all flavors/sizes) with BEST BY dates from APR 14 - SEP 30 2013

Wellness Canned Cat Chicken & Herring (all sizes) with BEST BY dates from NOV 10-17 2013

(Please Note: Only the Chicken & Herring formula has an extended recall date into Nov 2013)
