Salmonella is a bacteria that can cause severe
gastrointestinal disease. It can also affect other organ systems as
well. Typical signs associated with Salmonella in pets include but are
not limited to: vomiting, diarrhea, diarrhea with blood, lethargy,
depression, weakness, loss of appetite, weight loss, fever, and
abdominal pain.
Animals that don't show clinical signs can also be carriers of Salmonella and pass it to other pets and humans.
If your pet has any signs or has ingested the product mentioned above, please contact your veterinarian.
Salmonella
can also affect humans and there is a risk if you or someone you know
has come in contact with pet food, treats or supplements contaminated
with Salmonella, this includes dry products. The elderly, children and
immunocompromised individuals are most at risk.
To
reduce risk of infection, people should wash their hands with hot soapy
water after touching pet foods and surfaces pet foods have come in
contact with.
The clinical signs are similar as in
pets. If you or anyone you know is showing signs of illness after coming
in contact with this product, contact your health care provider.
