Nutro Products announced a voluntary recall of select varieties of NUTRO NATURAL CHOICE, COMPLETE CARE Dry Cat Foods and NUTRO MAX Cat Dry Foods with ”Best if used by dates” between May 12, 2010 and August 22, 2010. These cat foods are being voluntarily recalled in the US and other countries (Canada, Mexico, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and Israel).

The recall is due to incorrect levels of zinc and potassium in these products that resulted from a production error by the premix supplier. More information is available at the manufacturer”s website (www.nutro.com).

Please see our blog on Pet Food Supplementation. This current recall just adds to our concerns about pet food supplementation with isolated vitamin-mineral premixes.
