Bravo, of Manchester, Connecticut, is recalling select lots and product(s) of Bravo Pet Food due to possible Listeria monocytogene contamination.

Listeria Monocytogene causes listeriosis, a serious infection caused by eating food contaminated with the bacteria. Listeriosis has been recognized as an important public health problem in the United States. The disease affects primarily pregnant women, newborns, and adults with weakened immune systems and can also affect pets.

Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.

However, healthy cats and dogs rarely become sick from Listeria. Animals ill with Listeria will display symptoms similar to the ones listed above for humans. People who have concerns about whether their pet has Listeria should contact their veterinarian.

The recalled items are as follows :

1) These products are being recalled because they may have the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.
