Has Applaws been recalled?

2 notices on the five official registers we read (two US FDA lists, the UK Food Standards Agency, Canada and France's RappelConso) mention Applaws, in the United Kingdom. The latest we hold was published on 17 June 2021. Reason given: There is concern on the safety of the products listed above. There has been an increase in cases of pancytopenia in cats and there is a possible link to the.

We have read them on a schedule since September 2026, and the record also keeps the older notices they still listed then, back to 2012.

How to check a bag or tin you have

Recalls are issued for named products and, usually, specific lot codes or best-before dates, not for a whole brand. If a recall is published, the notice lists exactly which packs are affected.

1. Find the lot code, barcode and best-before date on the pack (often near the seam or on the bottom).
2. Check them here against every notice we hold.
3. Check the official registers yourself:

• US FDA, animal and veterinary recalls
• US FDA, enforcement reports
• UK Food Standards Agency, food alerts
• Canada, recalls and safety alerts
• France, RappelConso

If your pet seems unwell, call your vet. For a suspected poisoning, see animal poison helplines.
