Canned Cat Food Recalled After Complaints Received for Rubber Pieces

Nestlé Purina PetCare Company is voluntarily recalling a limited amount of Muse wet cat food Natural Chicken Recipe in Gravy in three-ounce cans due to the potential for product to contain rubber pieces that are translucent yellow with a blue backing.  This may present a potential choking hazard for the cat.  The company became aware of the issue after receiving complaints from pet owners who observed the rubber pieces in the product. Corrective action was taken to prevent use from occurring again.
