The recent rapid spread of HPAI in bird flocks and dairy herds throughout the country has increased the risk to cats. Over the past two months, four cats have died from Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) that may be connected to consumption of poultry-based raw frozen cat food. Wild Coast Pet Foods has voluntarily recalled Feline Free-Range Chicken with the Best By Date 12/25 and the Lot Codes #22660, #22653, #22641, #22639, #22672 and #22664. To reduce the risk of HPAI in cats, Mud Bay has temporarily stopped recommending and selling the following products for cats:
▪️ All raw frozen cat products that contain poultry meat, raw milk or uncooked eggs;
▪️ All freeze-dried cat products that contain poultry meat, raw milk or uncooked eggs—except those that have been cooked to a temperature of 165 degrees or higher.
No dog is known to have become ill from HPAI connected to dog food, and we have made no changes in our nutritional recommendations for dogs. We continue to monitor HPAI closely, and we will not offer products for sale unless and until we are confident of their safety.
