Hazard	Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Battery Ingestion Hazard
Hazard description	The recalled pet toys violate the mandatory standard for consumer products with button cell and coin batteries because the battery compartment is not secure, making the button cell batteries easily accessible to children, posing a deadly ingestion hazard. In addition, the button batteries provided with the pet toys are not in child-resistant packaging, and the packaging does not have the warnings as required by Reese’s Law. When button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns and death.
Non-compliance	Mandatory Standard for Consumer Products with Button Cell Batteries
Remedy	Consumers should stop using the recalled pet toys, place them in an area that children cannot access and properly dispose of the batteries. Contact JC Sales for a full refund. Customers will be asked to email a photograph of the disposed items to Recall@jcsales.net. _x000D_ Note: Button cell batteries are hazardous. Batteries should be disposed of or recycled by following local hazardous waste procedures.
