<b>Warning: New Pet Foods Recalled
The ASPCA is advising pet parents to discontinue the use of certain dog and cat foods manufactured by Mars Petcare US. On September 12, the company issued a nationwide recall of certain foods due to potential contamination with a Salmonella serotype called Schwarzengrund. The recall includes several widely distributed brands of dry pet food, including Pedigree, Special Kitty, Paws & Claws, Natural Dog Food, Red Flannel, Country Acres, Buju & Ziggie, Member's Mark, Natural Cat Food, Retriever, Bruiser, Doggy Bag, PMI Nutrition and Pet Pride.

"Pet parents should wash their hands after handling any potentially contaminated pet food," says Dr. Steven Hansen, the ASPCA's Senior Vice President of Animal Health Services, "and immediately consult with a veterinarian if any signs or symptoms are noticed in their pets."

Thanks for posting this! I sometimes use Special Kitty, but it think it's all gone. Won't be buying that anymore. Plus I let the kids feed the cats on occasion.
