Hartz Mountain Corp. has recalled two lots of Hartz Vitamin Care for Cats because of concerns about potential Salmonella contamination of bottles within the lots. UFAC (USA) Inc. of Baconton, Georgia manufactured both lots for Hartz in 2007. Testing by Hartz and UFAC has not revealed the presence of Salmonella in any Hartz products, but recent sampling by the Food and Drug Administration did detect the bacteria. The first lot of tainted pet vitamins that Hartz recalled was 3,600 bottles of Hartz Vitamin Care for Cats, lot code SZ-16371. The second lot was 739 bottles, lot code SZ-22771. The bar code on bottles from both lots is 32700-97701. Hartz has not received reports of pets or people becoming ill as a result of coming into contact with the product. Customers can contact Hartz at (800) 275-1414 with any questions and to obtain
reimbursement for cat vitamins that are tainted.
You know, because of this very reason, I’m very picky about what kind of vitamins I use for my cats. Before I started using the current type, I called and asked where the ingredients came from. It is privy information. All of their ingredients come from within the US, which eased my mind a bit. Here lately though, you just never know.
it should be clearly on the label with a vet on staff able to talk to you-be sure on that for your cats best interest
You might look at an all natural, USA made, water soluble, Patented cat vitamin called PAAWS
