WARNING!! Do NOT use Sergeant's or Hartz flea products!!!!

[mouse4689]

These companies will not get a single cent from me ever, now that I know this.

[seijido]

I will not use hearts I just sent my bf just now to buy the collar but thank god I seen this and thank god we only went to dollaramma screw that my cat may have fleas but I rather him deal with it a few more days rather then die over night

[whateverrulez]

i used this on my dog and now shes sick!

[monk22yrs]

in a couple hours i'm gonna try vineger in a carpet shampooer to kill fleas, along with borax again (though the borax gave me a rash)----way too afraid to use professional stuff.....

....especially when my oldest cat, monkey, is 18 (?) and i'm hoping he turns 22....he's probably lived this long cause no flea collers/etc----imagine breathing in a flea collar for months!

and all that inject stuff must be injected where a cat can't lick it.

too: pregnant women should avoid cat crap.

[tornandbruised]

@monk22yrs Perhaps you should do some research before telling me what a pregnant woman should or should not do. Toxoplasmosis is what is transferred in poop particles, however indoor cats almost never get it because they don't eat raw meat/prey, or play in dirt. Try googling this title for more info: If You are Expecting You CAN Keep Your Cat During Pregnancy

@tornandbruised it's your health; do wtf you want with your health; not my problem.

[tornandbruised]

@monk22yrs How about instead of being a condescending, confrontational douchebag, you actually READ the article? I already explained it in my last msg. Nothing too terribly hard to understand about it; my cats are indoor cats (or one of them is, the other had to be put to sleep last year); my cat(s) have no way to catch the toxoplasmosis virus. Therefore, I had no chance of catching it from scooping the litter box. Didn't realize you had to be a rocket scientist to understand that. Moron.

I used the Sergeant flea spray on my cat and it nearly killed him. Took him to the vet and spent about $350 on shots of vitamins, medication, etc. He had a 106 temp, the vet said he may die so prepare for the worst. He would stay in one spot all day till finally he came around and is much better now. DO NOT USE THESE PRODUCTS!!! Vet said never to buy flea control from Target, Walmart, etc.

Sent your video around - thanks for posting!

[wihyena69]

Thank you for further getting the word out!! I used Hartz flea drops for cats on our cats ONCE when we couldn't afford Frontline. Within mere minutes both cats' skin turned bright red + they started flipping out, clawing at their backs like it was burning them. It was! I went online, found hundreds of seizure/death stories + within 1/2 an hour had bathed both cats with gentle dish soap. They were (and are) fine...but I lucked out! I will NEVER again use anything I didn't get from the vet!!

[OswaldsNightingale]

Oh gosh honey, I hope your baby will be perfectly ok.. I read somewhere harts dosage is 18-20x higher than is safe for humans.. also I'm very glad your friends are ok.. I have a new stray I'm keeping on temp and I washed sergeants cat powder off within 2 hours of dusting him. his second bath in a day and he's been such a good sport. I'm hoping he shows no symptoms in the next 2 days.. and I will be telling ALL my friends.. Keep fighting the good fight, friend! ;)

[ApRiL3706]

what does OTC mean? anyways i have bathed my cats with seregant's shampoo before and nothing happened but i will not use this product anymore because maybe later there might be a reaction if i keep using it. thank you so much for putting this video up i'm glad your pets are ok now

[OswaldsNightingale]

@ApRiL3706 OTC means "Over The Counter".. and I had tried Sergeants powder for cats today that an older lady gave me for a stray i found... once i read the reviews, I gave him a second bath immediatly.. (he'd just gotten dry from his first one.. he's been a real sport) that was earlier this afternoon.. I'm hoping nothing happens to kitty for the next 48 hours, which seems to be the critical period.. Now I know better tho.. NEVER AGAIN. I couldn't live with the guilt.. glad ur taking a stand too.

[ApRiL3706]

@OswaldsNightingale thanks for the information i'll pray for your cat that he/she will get better (>^.^<) but don't feel guilty it's not your fault, it's the company's fault for selling bad products without testing it properly!!

[OswaldsNightingale]

@ApRiL3706 Thankls hun.. lol it's been 48hrs+ and Kitty's doing fine! lol except for some eye goop that most every kitten i've known has.. lol i think She'll be fine.. Thank goodness.. lol and yea, as for the companies, they know their products harm some animals, they just don't care. I mean, at LEAST they could change the formula right? They could keep making money without killing our friends! Time has shown most people are not chemists.. lol

[TimmyGal]

I use Frontline on my dogs. Never had a problem. Don't know about cats as I don't have any.

[artemaugust]

That's horrible. But why did you keep using these products on subsequent pets after the first adverse reaction on the youngest cat?

[tornandbruised]

@artemaugust I didn't "keep using these products on subsequent pets". We had bathed all 3 of our pets with the product at nearly the same time before there WAS a reaction! Do you honestly think we're stupid enough to bathe our pets with something we know is causing harm? Seriously, use your brain.

[travis7310]

If I ever get another cat, which I'm hoping to someday soon, I will NEVER use any OTC flea products, no matter what brand. I will only use flea medications that are prescribed by the vet, like you said to do!

Thank you so much for uploading this video to let everyone know the dangers of OTC flea medications. Flea colors will be a no-no, as well!

[tornandbruised]

@WwhelpcompwW If you read the description, you'd know we used the one that was meant for CATS, on our CATS. Seems like you're the "fucking idiota" here. Learn how to spell. Moron.

[SSCC2015]
