Recalled canned Wellness

[drjsiems]

I have not yet thrown out the recalled Wellness canned food (about four 12.5 ounce cans) and am wondering if, rather than wasting it, it would be okay to add some thiamine B1 to it before feeding it? Other than a thiamine deficiency, is this food safe?

Thanks,
Judy

I myself have one can of the recalled stuff. I just plan to use it. I consider it to be a long-term issue of feeding the same thiamine-deficient food all the time.

I had 2 cases of the recalled food, and since it would be a few days before they got new stuff in, I chose to use it, but then ChrisCleo had some cans for me (thanks Chris!) But... the main reason I brought them back today wasnt really the recall, it was that both of these cases were the thicker, not as smooth consistency cans, and my picky kitties :roll: prefer the smoother, wetter cans.

I feed canned Wellness exclusively and my kitties are fine..issues they are having predated the recall.

I have about 6 cans of the recalled food. I intend to feed it once a week until it is gone. As others have said, it is only a problem if you are feeding it exclusively.

To answer your original question, yes... adding a liquid B complex vitamin to the food will resolve the issue.
