Statement on Manufacturers' Pet Food Recalls

At Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club, we want our customers and members to have total confidence in their pet food choices. That’s why, in addition to directing all of our locations to immediately remove all recalled items, we took the extra precaution of placing a computerized block on all recalled products so they cannot pass through the cash register. 

In addition, Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club have been in touch with our pet food suppliers and they’ve assured us that the pet food products available for sale are contaminant-free.

For a complete list of products that have been removed from our shelves, please see below.

Although some specific variations (sizes and flavors) of Ol’ Roy and Special Kitty have been removed from our shelves as a result of this activity, many Ol’ Roy and Special Kitty offerings are supplied to Wal-Mart by different manufacturers and are not impacted.  The Ol’ Roy and Special Kitty selections still available either are not impacted by this recall or have written confirmation from our suppliers that they are free of contamination.

Pet food safety is a top priority at Wal-Mart as we understand the important role that pets play in the lives of our customers and members. 

Wal-Mart customers and Sam’s Club members with product in question may return it to their nearest location for a full refund. 

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is the federal government agency that oversees, along with state regulatory programs, that all pet foods and ingredients used in pet food are safe.
