WellPet found through product quality testing that specific product runs of Wellness canned cat food might contain less than adequate levels of thiamine (also known as Vitamin B1), they have decided to voluntarily recall them.
Please know, the vast majority of products tested had the appropriate levels of thiamine; however, with the number of recipes they offer, they did not want to make this more confusing. Therefore to avoid confusion and in an abundance of caution, they have decided to recall all canned cat products with the specific date codes noted below. Cats fed only product with inadequate levels of thiamine for several weeks may be at risk for developing a thiamine deficiency. If treated promptly, thiamine deficiency is typically reversible.
Though the chance of developing this deficiency is remote, withdrawing these products is the right thing to do and they are removing it from retailers' shelves.
The lots involved in this voluntary recall are:
Wellness Canned Cat (all flavors and sizes) with best by dates from 14 APR 2013 through 30 SEP 2013;
Wellness Canned Cat Chicken & Herring (all sizes) with best by date of 10 NOV 2013 and 17 NOV 2013.
If you have cat food from these lots, you should stop feeding it to your cats. You may call WellPet at 1-877-227-9587 to arrange for return of the product and reimbursement.
