Diamond Pet Foods recalls
Premium Edge cat food
Daily Record/Sunday News
Updated: 10/20/2009 11:13:11 PM EDT

Diamond Pet Foods has issued a voluntary recall of certain cat foods
manufactured by Diamond Pet Foods for Premium Edge.

The affected brands were found to contain an inadequate level of thiamine,
which may cause clinical signs of thiamine deficiency in cats eating this
food.

The recall includes Premium Edge Finicky Adult cat food and Premium Edge
Hairball cat food with date codes RAF0501A22X 18lb., RAF0501A2X 6 lb.,
RAH0501A22X 18 lb. and RAH0501A2X 6lb. The date of manufacture is May 28,
2009.

Retail outlets shipped the above lots were asked to pull the product from
the store shelves and to contact customers via e-mail or telephone,
requesting them to check the date code of the food they purchased. Anyone
who has these date codes of Premium Edge cat food should return them to the
retailer from which it was purchased.

Symptoms may include wobbly walking or muscle weakness, paralysis of the
hindlimbs, seizures, ventroflexion (bending towards the floor) of the neck,
and abnormal eye movement called nystagmus. Any cats fed these date codes
that display these symptoms should be immediately taken to a veterinarian.
If your veterinarian diagnoses that your cat has become ill from consuming
the affected pet food, ask your veterinarian to file a report with FDA.

Call Premium Edge Pet Foods at 800-977-8797 between the hours of 8 a.m. and
5 p.m. Central time, Mondays through Fridays.
