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. Savage Pet, of El Cajon, California, issued this week’s recall. It says the pet food was distributed in California, Colorado, New York, Pennsylvania and Washington state. It’s the latest recall tied to products contaminated with H5N1 bird flu that sickened and killed cats in several states. The virus has raced through poultry and cattle in the U.S. and infected at least 70 people since last year. Veterinary experts say pet owners should avoid feeding their animals raw milk or raw pet food.
