Iams Cat Food Recall
Procter & Gamble is voluntarily recalling two lots of Iams brand prescription renal dry cat food because it may be contaminated with salmonella. That's right, DRY cat food can carry salmonella. These products are available by prescription through veterinary clinics.
The FDA analysis identified positive results on two lots of Iams Veterinary Formulas Feline Renal 5.5 lbs: numbers 01384174B4 0 19014 21405 1 and 01384174B2 0 19014 21405 1.

Salmonella is just plain nasty, so be careful.
