Newest first
1. Darwin’s Natural Selections Chicken Recipe for Cats: FDA advisory (Oct. 26)
Problem: Salmonella. The FDA tested two samples after a consumer reported that two cats got gastrointestinal illness. One was hospitalized, and both recovered after they stopped eating the food.
Affected lots (frozen 2-lb packages split into four units, with the lot code printed on the front of the lower-left unit):
| Product | Lot | Manufactured |
|---|---|---|
| Darwin’s Natural Pet Products Natural Selections Chicken Recipe for Cats | 12731 | Jul 8, 2026 |
| Darwin’s Natural Pet Products Natural Selections Chicken Recipe for Cats | 12493 | Apr 2, 2026 |
Why this one is different: this is an FDA advisory, not a company recall. The FDA asked the company to recall the lots, and as of the advisory the firm had not started an adequate recall. The food is sold frozen by subscription and has no expiration date on the label, so it may still be in your freezer.
What to do: stop feeding it and throw it away in a secure container that pets and wildlife can’t get into. Don’t donate it. If you can’t read the lot code, the FDA says to throw the food away. Clean and disinfect bowls, utensils, storage containers, prep surfaces and your freezer or fridge.
2. Fi dog supplements (FDA posted Sept. 8)
Problem: possible Salmonella from an ingredient supplied to Fi’s manufacturer. Sold directly by Fi and through Amazon and Chewy.
| Product | Lot | UPC |
|---|---|---|
| Fi Calming supplement for Dogs, 180 g | 26118 | 8 50064 80011 1 |
| Fi 8-in-1 Formula supplement for Dogs, 180 g | 26159 | 8 50055 11168 4 |

Recall safety basics
- Salmonella and Listeria can make people sick too. Wash your hands after handling pet food, especially raw food, and keep it away from human food. Infected pets can carry and shed the bacteria without looking sick.
- Freezing doesn’t kill Salmonella, according to the FDA.
- Signs of Salmonella in pets include lethargy, diarrhea (possibly bloody), fever, vomiting and loss of appetite. Call your vet if your pet ate a recalled product and shows any of them.
- You can report a pet food problem to the FDA through its Safety Reporting Portal.
