Salmonella can affect animals as well as humans that handle the affected food. Salmonella symptoms in humans can include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramping, and fever. In rare instances, Salmonella can cause arterial infections, endocarditis, arthritis, muscle pain, eye irritation, and urinary tract symptoms. Consumers with Salmonella symptoms should contact their healthcare provider.

Salmonella symptoms in pets can include lethargy and diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, and vomiting. In some instances, pets will only have decreased appetite, fever, and abdominal pain. Some pets can be carriers of Salmonella and infect other animals and humans. Pets that have Salmonella symptoms should see their veterinarian.
