Because of Possible Bird Flu Health Risk.

Wild Coast LLC dba Wild Coast Raw of Olympia, WA is recalling lots of frozen Boneless Free Range Chicken Formula raw pet food for cats because it has the potential to be contaminated with Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) H5N1 also known as bird flu. H5N1 can be transmitted to animals eating contaminated product.

The product, 16oz and 24oz frozen Boneless Free Range Chicken Formula raw pet food for cats was distributed to pet food retailers in Washington State and Oregon.

The recall is widened to include any raw material sharing similar production dates and lot codes as #22660 and #22664. These two lot codes were included in the WSDA’s public health alert on 2/14.

    Are we going to continue to feed into the fear? You posted yourself that the food was found not to have it so why are all these raw food companies panicking?
