ok just got this
I recently had a neighbor who had to have their 5-year old German
Shepherd dog put down due to liver failure. The dog was completely
healthy until a few weeks ago, so they had a necropsy 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 anitfreeze is one of the
ingredients. (actually he was told it's a compound which is one
molecule away from anitfreeze). Therefore, just by the dog walking on the
floor cleaned with the solution, then licking it's own paws, and the dog
eating from its dishes which were kept on the kitchen floor cleaned with
this product, 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. Necropsies 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 so they don't lose their animals.
