It was found that the bow attachment on the item - with product code Kimball 86503 - had the potential to become detached and present a potential choking hazard.

Customers can return the item to any Primark store - proof of purchase will not be required.

The company statement read: “The Novelty Cat Legging... does not meet the Primark usual high standards for safety.

“With the safety of our customers at the forefront of our minds we are inviting you to return this item for a full refund.”
