Hello all.

This just hit the news and you should all be aware of it.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — Dayton, OH — March 16, 2007 — In response to the recent Menu
Foods, Inc. nationwide recall of wet pet foods, P&G Pet Care has announced a voluntary
recall in the United States and Canada on specific 3 oz., 5.5 oz., 6 oz. and 13.2 oz.
canned and 3 oz. and 5.3 oz. foil pouch “wet” cat and dog food products manufactured by
Menu Foods Inc. Emporia, Kansas plant with the code dates of 6339 through 7073 followed
by the plant code 4197. This voluntary recall is part of a larger product recall by Menu
Foods Inc., a contract manufacturer that makes a small portion of canned and foil pouch
‘wet’ cat foods for Iams and Eukanuba as well as other non-P&G brands. There have been a
small number of reported cases of cats from the US (none in Canada) becoming sick and
developing signs of kidney failure. The signs of kidney failure include loss of appetite,
vomiting, and lethargy. P&G Pet Care has received no case reports involving dogs.

This voluntary product recall involves discontinuation of all retail sales and product
retrieval from consumers. Consumers should stop using the affected products immediately,
and consult with a veterinarian if any symptoms are present in their pet. All Iams and
Eukanuba products carry a 100 percent guarantee, and consumers can receive a refund for
recalled products. For more information, consumers can contact the company at
1-800-882-1591 or visit www.Iams.com and www.Eukanuba.com for details.

To read can product codes, refer to the bottom of the can. The first four numbers of the
second line of numbers are the date code, and the following four numbers indicate the
plant code. For example, if the second line begins with four numbers from 6339 to 7073
followed by the plant code 4197, then the can should be recalled. For foil pouches, the
code numbers are located at the lower left hand corner on the back of the pouch. The date
and plant codes appear in the third group of numbers, beginning an 11-digit sequence.
See www.Iams.com and www.Eukanuba.com for illustrated details.

P&G Pet Care is taking this proactive step out of an abundance of caution, because the
health and well-being of pets is paramount in the mission of Iams and Eukanuba. Tests of
some affected product have not revealed the cause of sickness, and testing will continue
until a better understanding of the facts has been achieved. All other canned and small
foil wet pouch products produced at other plants are not affected by this issue. Iams and
Eukanuba “dry” products are not manufactured at Menu Foods and not affected by this issue
. Iams and Eukanuba biscuits, treats and sauces are not affected by this issue.

P&G Pet Care has informed the Food and Drug Administration and the Canadian Food
Inspection Agency on this issue. The company regrets any inconvenience to its consumers
and retail customers.

P.S. I suspect that a vitamin/mineral premix has been added in a too high of a level,
such a calcium or Vitamin D.

Yet another reason to make your own food.
