Los Angeles Times After another raw pet food recall and a cluster of H5N1 bird-flu-infected cats, Los Angeles county public health officials are re-upping their warning to pet owners: Stop feeding your dogs and cats raw pet food.
A recall has been issued on San Jacinto-based Monarch Raw Pet Food, whose raw poultry products are sold at several farmers markets in California. The recall came after H5N1 bird flu was detected in product samples.
At least one cat in the county has tested positive for the virus after consuming the pet food. Four other cats, from the same household, were also presumed infected.
