A popular brand of children's drinking bottle has been recalled by the manufacturer due to a risk of choking being identified.

It has been discovered that the silicone tip of the straw on the Cath Kidston bottles may come loose and therefore could present a choking hazard.

The bottles affected by this potential issue were on sale between 12 June 2017 and 14 August 2017 and, as a company spokesperson said, “fell below our rigorous quality standards.”
