How SAFELINE® Pet Protects Your Family from The Bird Flu.

We are aware of the increasing concern regarding Avian Influenza A (H5N1) "Bird Flu" cases throughout the USA. According to the Virginia Department of Health, "To date, H5N1 bird flu virus has not been detected in people, dairy cattle, or other domestic animals in Virginia." This includes the counties of Dayton, Virginia and Roanoke, Virginia where we produce our eggs and manufacture our product. SAFELINE pet® manufacturing facilities strictly processes chicken eggs, eliminating any exposure to or cross-contamination from dairy cattle or its byproducts.

Heat Treatment/Pasteurization 

H5N1 cannot survive if heated to 165°F. Facilities used by SaFeline pet® uses an immersion circulator to heat and hold the eggs to 165°F before dunking them into an ice bath and loading them into freeze dryers. All eggs are washed prior to pasteurization, and pasteurized eggs are strictly kept separate from unpasteurized eggs. 

How does SaFeline pet® protect our chickens and cats and your cats from the Bird Flu?

From farm to facility, we are following the Virginia Department of Health's recommended biosecurity practices:

Our structural biosecurity measures include:

  • fully-enclosed chicken houses and coops
  • isolation of chickens from visitors, wild birds, and rodents

Our operational biosecurity measures include:

  • regular cleaning of poultry living areas and equipment
  • hand washing before and after egg collection and poultry handling 
  • no eating/drinking in poultry living areas
  • wearing personal protective equipment (PPE), specifically disposable gloves, goggles, face mask, and hair net
  • wearing dedicated farm clothing and shoes
  • monitoring the health of our chickens
  • knowing the warning signs of illness 

We have small to mid-sized local farms maintained by individual families and their farmhands. Our #1 priority is the safety of your cats, our cats, and our chickens through maintaining ethical farming and business practices.

How long does it take to feel a reduction in my allergy symptoms?

After around 3 weeks of daily feeding to your cat, you may start to feel relief from your cat allergy symptoms. 

What are the directions for feeding my adult cat or kitten the supplement?

Feed it to your adult cat once a day everyday. Add one scoop (one teaspoon) of the powder supplement into your cat’s wet or dry food and mix thoroughly. Add a little bit of water to the dry food if the powder supplement is not adhering. For kittens under 10 months old, mix in a half scoop (1/2 teaspoon) to their wet/dry food. 

Is the food topper safe and effective for my adult cat or kitten? What are the health benefits?

Yes, our product is safe and effective for adult cats and kittens. Our formula is designed to promote feline digestive, urinary tract, and coat health.

How much sugar is in the product?

The sugar is added to protect the allergen-neutralizing proteins in the eggs through the freeze drying process. There is less than 1 gram of sugar in each jar. The sugar is added to protect the proteins in the egg from becoming de-natured during the freeze-drying process. 3% is the recommended sugar limit in a cat's daily diet. Our sugar amount is below this limit while still remaining effective.
