Vitakraft Sun Seed Recall of Sun Seed Vita Prima Hedgehog Food Due to Possible Salmonella Health Risk
Vitakraft Sun Seed Inc. of Weston, OH is working closely with our colleagues at the FDA and MN Department of Agriculture and out of an abundance of caution has elected to expand the recall to include the following lots of Sun Seed Vita Prima Hedgehog Food and Vitakraft Vita Smart Hedgehog Food because it has the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella. Salmonella can affect animals eating the products and there is risk to humans from handling contaminated pet products, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after having contact with the products or any surfaces exposed to these products.

Vitakraft Sun Seed was notified on June 18, 2024, by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture that Salmonella was detected in an inspection sample of product from Lot Number 417429. The tests which discovered the bacteria were part of random testing performed by the State of Minnesota on consumer products, and not prompted by any consumer concerns.

Products matching the specific lot number below are being recalled:

Food and Drug Administration (FDA) over fears of bacterial contamination that could cause illness in the animals, and in some cases, potentially death.
DOG AND CAT FOOD RECALL
Viva Raw LLC of Hillsborough, North Carolina, is voluntarily recalling various lots of some of its cat and dog food products due to fears that the products may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.

According to the recall notice posted on the FDA website, the recall covers the following products, all of which have Lot #21244:

Viva Turkey for Dogs Ground
Viva Turkey for Dogs Chunked
Viva Turkey for Cats
Viva Pure Turkey
Viva Beef &Turkey for Puppies
The products were distributed in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The products have no expiration date.

WHAT IS LISTERIA MONOCYTOGENES?
Listeria monocytogenes is a bacteria that can cause a serious infection known as Listeriosis in humans. Symptoms of Listeriosis in humans include vomiting, fever, and diarrhea, among others, according to the FDA. But Listeriosis can also result in meningitis and other deadly illnesses. Pregnant women, the young, old, and frail are more at risk of serious complications.

In pets, Listeria monocytogenes can cause a number of troubling symptoms including diarrhea, anorexia, and fever. The animals could also experience depression, miscarriage, and even death from an infection resulting from Listeria monocytogenes bacteria.

If pets consume the contaminated pet food, they can become ill. However, humans may also become ill after handling the pet food. What’s more, pets can also act as carriers through their saliva and f***s, infecting other people and animals that come into contact with their substances.

WHAT DO I DO IF I HAVE THE RECALLED DOG AND CAT FOOD?
The FDA notice says you should not feed the products to any pets. It also recommends that you do not touch the products with your bare hands. Use gloves or paper towels to dispose of the products in a sealed bag and then sanitize all surfaces that have come into contact with it.

Those with the recalled products can contact Viva Raw at [email protected] for a refund. You can find out full details about the dog and cat food recall here.
