Popular Pet Food Company Announces Recall

A pet food company has issued a recall of some of its popular cat and ferret foods.

Natura Pet Products initiated a voluntary recall of certain dry cat and dry ferret foods produced in its Fremont, Nebraska facility.

The company said due to a formulation error, the products contain insufficient levels of vitamins and excess minerals.

Pets could become ill if they lack vitamins for prolonged periods of time.

According to Natura, early warning signs of vitamin deficiency include decreased appetite, lethargy, vomiting and weight loss. If treated quickly, vitamin deficiency can be reversed.

The presence of excess minerals in these products poses no health concern.

The affected products and lot codes are:
