natura pet products has expanded its previous voluntary recall of certain lots of dry food after further products tested positive for salmonella. no salmonella-related illnesses have been reported to date. the salmonella-strain has been traced to one of the production machines in natura's facility.  not all product is affected.

madcat has several natura brands affected by this recall, including:
evo, california natural and innova.  we have pulled all recalled product and encourage you to check your bags  for lot codes.  

you will find lot codes located either on the top or bottom of the front of packaging - they will appear underneath the expiration date.  bring your bag(s) into the store and we will read your code for you.
