Many of the brands involved in the recall are national brands produced at multiple facilities. A chart for all products is below. For example, PEDIGREE® is manufactured in numerous facilities throughout the country, and Everson represents a very small portion of the manufacturing base - 2.7 percent of total PEDIGREE® production.

 

Mars Petcare US will work with retail customers to ensure that the recalled products are not on store shelves. These products not be sold or fed to pets. In the event that consumers believe they have purchased products affected by this voluntary recall, 1 should return the product to the store where they purchased it for a full refund. Specific product details and other information can be found at www.petcare.mars.com

 

In an effort to prevent the transmission of Salmonella from pets to family members and care givers, the FDA recommends that everyone follow appropriate pet food handling guidelines when feeding their pets. A list of safe pet food handling tips can be found at www.fda.gov/consumer/updates/petfoodtips080307.htm

 

Pet owners who have questions about the recall should call 1-877-568-4463 or visit www.petcare.mars.com.
