-NEW- Very important information concerning the IAMS/EUKANUBA recall?

Question

According to menufoods.com, there was no information concerning the Iams and Eukanuba recall. I have the seriel number of the recalled cans from the Iams website:

If you have a can with the following numbers on the BOTTOM OF THE CAN, please do not feed it to your pet and contact a vet ASAP if symptoms such as vomiting, restlessness, lathargicness, etc occur. Better yet, I would suggest holding off of any of the brands listed for the recall until further notice. For food, I suggest feeding hamburger (non-seasoned) and rice for dogs, as it is gentle on their stomachs and gives them the right nutrition. As for cats, I have no ideas of what to feed.

CAN ID NUMBER: if the second line begins with four numbers from 6339 to 7073 followed by the plant code 4197

I hope this helps any scared pet owners. I know it put me at rest.

If your cat or dog eats DRY FOOD, TREATS, or SAUCES by Iams/Eukanuba, they are uneffected. They are not made in the same plant, and this has been confirmed by the Iams/Eukanuba company.

Answer 1

I work at a grocery store and just heard about the recall yesterday. Fortunately, we pulled the items from the shelf, so if the stores that carry it got the news, they've probably already pulled it from their shelves. Though it doesn't effect me personally, it makes me happy that someone put the word out on Answers. Kudos to you.

Answer 2

Thanks for telling me. I didn't know about this and am relieved to know my cat's food is not on the list and is still safe for them.
