Pet food recalls

On holidays, US Food Safety calls them, “under the radar recalls”. Here is what the FDA has recalled:

Formula No.	Item No.	Description	Lot No.
5025	0001330	Guinea Pig Diet 50#	APR17122
56A6	0001452	Mazuri® Small Bird Maintenance 25#	APR15123
5MA2	0040996	Mazuri® Primate Maintenance Biscuit 25#	APR22122
5MD9	0011482	Mazuri® Maned Wolf Diet 33#	APR21122

The reason is the potential for an elevated vitamin D level in these products. Elevated vitamin D levels can be harmful to animals if fed for extended periods. Let your friends and family who have small birds or guinea pigs about this recall.
