Wildwood Seed & Specialties Recalls Pet Bird And Small Pet Animal Food

Wildwood Seed & Specialties, Monroe, OR has recalled a limited supply of their Sleek and Sassy brand bird and small animal foods that contain raw in-shell peanuts. These products contain peanut ingredients recalled by Sunland Inc. due to their potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.

Salmonella can affect animals eating the products and there is risk to humans from handling contaminated pet products.

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 these symptoms, please contact your veterinarian.

No pet or consumer illnesses from this product have been reported to date. However, because of their commitment to safety and quality, Wildwood Seed & Specialties is conducting a voluntary recall of this product.

The potentially affected lots of Sleek and Sassy brand pet foods were distributed to retail pet food stores in Oregon and Washington, primarily through pet specialty retailers.

The Sleek and Sassy products are sold in plastic bags/jars and paper bags. The products affected by this recall are identified with the manufacturing codes 01148 through 01241 and have the following “UPC”:

As a result of Sunland Inc. announcing a voluntary extension of the ongoing recall of peanut butter and other nut butter products produced in their Peanut Butter Plant to include raw and roasted shelled and in-shell peanuts processed in their separate Peanut Processing Plant due to possible health risk on Oct 12, 2012, Wildwood Seed & Specialties is voluntarily recalling a limited supply of their Sleek and Sassy brand bird and small animal foods that contain raw in-shell peanuts from Sunland’s Peanut Processing Plant. This is being done as a precautionary measure, as the product has the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella.

Consumers who have purchased the above lots of Sleek & Sassy brand are urged to stop feeding them and return product to place of purchase for a full refund or dispose of them immediately.
