El Cajon-based Savage Pet Food is recalling boxes of raw chicken food that possibly contain the “ highly pathogenic” H5N1, also known as the bird flu virus. The company on March 15 said it was pulling 66 large chicken boxes (84 ounces each) and 74 small chicken boxes (21 ounces each) with the lot code/best by date of 11152026.

Cat owners should monitor their pets for symptoms including fever, lethargy, low appetite, eye inflammation, breathing difficulties, and tremors or seizures.

A pet food company has recalled one lot of its raw chicken pet food after it was linked to bird flu infections detected in two cats and suspected in a third in New York City.
