December 27, 2024 – Northwest Naturals is voluntarily recalling one batch of its 2lb Feline Turkey Recipe raw frozen pet food after testing confirmed contamination with the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus.
This recall is being conducted in partnership with the Oregon Department of Agriculture.
What to do?
Consumers who purchased this product are advised to immediately discard it. For a full refund, contact the place of purchase.
Consumption of raw or undercooked pet food contaminated with HPAI may cause illness in animals. One cat is reported to have died from eating the contaminated food.
The FDA has issued guidelines to reduce the risk of pets contracting H5N1 (avian influenza), particularly in cats, which are highly susceptible to the virus. Investigations have linked HPAI infections in felines to contaminated or improperly processed foods, such as raw or undercooked meats and unpasteurized milk. Cats should not consume products from affected farms unless thoroughly cooked or pasteurized, and they should be kept from hunting wild birds.
