Subject: For dogs
recently had a neighbor who had their 5-year old German shepherd dog
put down due to liver failure. The dog was completely healthy until a
few weeks ago. They had an autopsy done to see what the cause was. The
liver levels were unbelievable, as if the dog had ingested poison of
some kind. The dog is kept inside, and when he's outside, someone's
with him, so the idea of him getting into something unknown was hard to
believe.
My neighbor started going through all the items in the house. When he
got to the Swiffer Wetjet, he noticed, in very tiny print, a warning
which stated "may be harmful to small children and animals." He called
the company to ask what the contents of the cleaning agent are and was
astounded to find out that antifreeze is one of the ingredients. (Actually
he was told it's a compound which is one molecule away from antifreeze).
Therefore, just by the dog walking on the floor cleaned with the
solution, then licking its own paws, it ingested enough of the solution
to destroy its liver. Soon after his dog's death, his housekeepers' two
cats also died of liver failure. They both used the Swiffer Wetjet for
quick cleanups on their floors.
Autopsies weren't done on the cats, so they couldn't file a lawsuit,
but he asked that we spread the word to as many people as possible.
EVEN IF YOU DO NOT OWN A PET PLEASE FORWARD THIS ON!
