On May 21, Nutro voluntarily recalled select varieties of its Nutro Natural Choice Complete Care dry cat foods and Nutro Max dry cat with "best If used by" dates between May 12, 2010, and August 22, 2010.
The cat food is being recalled in the United States and 10 additional countries (Mexico, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and Israel).
This recall is due to incorrect levels of zinc and potassium in the finished product resulting from a production error by a U.S.-based premix supplier.
Consumers should immediately discontinue feeding these products to their cats, and monitor their cats for symptoms including a reduction in appetite or refusal of food, weight loss, vomiting or diarrhea. If your cat is experiencing health issues or is pregnant, please contact your veterinarian.
Consumers should return affected products to their retailers for a full refund or exchange for another Nutro dry cat food product.
