Feline’s Pride Recall and Virginia Stop Sale

Dear Feline’s Pride customer,

Virginia Stop Sale

 As of July 1, 2010, Feline’s Pride cannot be sold in the State of Virginia because of labeling and registration issues. The Virginia Feed, Licensing and Registrations Office has asked Feline’s Pride to make modifications to their packaging label to clarify ingredients and manufacturing. Since these modifications were not agreed upon by July 1^st, 2010, we are not allowed to sell Feline’s Pride, nor will any Feline’s Pride be allowed to be shipped into Virginia until a forthcoming approval. Feline’s Pride is working with Virginia officials to meet their requirements in every way possible to help expedite approval of the labeling.

Nationwide Recall

Feline’s Pride has announced a voluntary recall of Feline’s Pride Raw food with ground bone for cats and kittens, Natural Chicken Formula, Net Wt. 2.5 lbs. (1.13 kg., 40 oz.) produced on 6/10/10, because it may be contaminated with Salmonella.  The Feline’s Pride and FDA are investigating this matter to determine the source of this problem, and will take any additional steps necessary to protect the public health. To date, Feline’s Pride has received no reports of Salmonella infection relating to this product. This product should not be fed to pets but should instead be disposed of in a safe manner (e.g., in a securely covered trash receptacle).  For more information: http://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/ucm217826.htm
