Published safety action

Battery ingestion

Hazard

The recalled pet toys violate the mandatory standard for consumer products containing button cell or coin batteries as required by Law because the LED-illuminated plastic sphere can break upon impact, making the button cell batteries easily accessible to children, posing an ingestion hazard. Swallowed batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns and death.

Consumer action

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled pet toys and contact Petmate for a full refund. Note: Button cell and coin batteries are hazardous. If disposing of or recycling button cell or coin batteries, do so in a manner that follows local hazardous waste procedures.

Decision boundary

Use the exact product description, not only the brand.

  • Open the current CPSC portal and maker notice before acting.
  • A record does not score every product from the business.
  • No match in HungryPets is not safety clearance or proof an item was never recalled.
  • This consumer-product record is separate from FDA/FSA pet-food recall evidence.
