Danger : Possible presence of Salmonella
Salmonella can cause symptoms such as lack of appetite, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, fever and lethargy after consumption in fragile animals (very young, old, weakened). In healthy animals, salmonella generally causes few or no symptoms. When the animal has eaten the product concerned and presents these symptoms, its owner is invited to consult a veterinarian and report this consumption.
In the absence of symptoms, animals can be healthy carriers of salmonellosis, that is to say excrete salmonella in their stools without being sick. A risk of contamination via the excrement of the animal having consumed the product or directly via the contaminated food therefore exists for all people in contact with the animal or food concerned.
The product can be distributed by different points of sale in Luxembourg.
