February 20, 2013 -
According to an updated FDA news bulletin
, Kasel Associated Industries of Denver, CO is voluntarily recalling all
products manufactured at its Denver, Colorado facility from April 20, 2012
through

Salmonella can sicken animals that eat these products. And humans are at
risk for Salmonella poisoning from handling contaminated pet products -
especially
if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after having contact with the
pet products or any surfaces exposed to these products.
Healthy people infected with Salmonella should monitor themselves for some
or all of the following symptoms:
list of 6 items
. Fever
. Nausea
. Vomiting
. Diarrhea

list end
Rarely, Salmonella can result in more serious ailments, including arterial
infections, endocarditis, arthritis, muscle pain, eye irritation, and
urinary
tract symptoms.
Consumers exhibiting these symptoms after having contact with this product
should contact their healthcare providers.
Pets with Salmonella infections may be lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody
diarrhea, fever, and vomiting.
Some pets will have only decreased appetite, fever and abdominal pain.
Infected but otherwise healthy pets can be carriers and infect other animals
or humans.
If your pet has consumed the recalled product and has any of these signs,
please contact your veterinarian.
