Hill’s Prescription Diet™m/d™Feline dry food manufactured and sold in Europe is not affected by this recall and can continue to be fed with full confidence.
In accordance with its over-riding commitment to pet health and well-being, Hill's Pet Nutrition, Inc. has voluntarily recalled Prescription Diet m/d Feline dry food from the US and export markets. Hill's has taken this precautionary action because during a two-month period in early 2007, wheat gluten for this food was provided by a company that also supplied wheat gluten to Menu Foods. Tests of wheat gluten samples from this period show low levels of a foreign substance.
Hill’s Prescription Diet m/d Feline dry food manufactured and sold in Europe does not contain wheat gluten meal.
No other dry or canned Hill’s Pet Nutrition foods sold in Europe contain wheat gluten meal.
You should note, however, that Hill’s Prescription Diet c/d, k/d and i/d Feline pouches made in Australia and sold in Europe do contain wheat gluten meal but are not affected by the recall and can also continue to be fed with full confidence. The wheat gluten meal used in these foods is sourced locally in Australia and not from the company that supplied wheat gluten meal to Menu Foods in the USA .
Our customers can therefore be reassured that all Hill’s products can be fed with continued confidence in terms of both their quality and nutritional excellence.
