Hi Friends,
 
This notice came to me from my sister and is highly considered to be true in nature.  She is an RN, and came by it from a company representative.
 
If you use it, read the additives yourself, or call if they are not on the package.  I know that we have used it at least once and now I am worried about it.
 
We have four cats and all of them have been real drowsy and have quit playing and are losing hair at an alarming rate (way more than normal spring shedding).
 
So, I thought I had better send it to all on the list...FYI.
 
Best of luck to you all.  May peace and prosperity come your way.

Subject: VERY IMPORTANT!!!






SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT!



  Recently someone 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 antifreeze is one of the ingredients.

  Therefore, just by the dog walking on the floor cleaned
 with the

  solution, then licking it's 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. 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. This is equally

  harmful to babies and small children that play on the floor a lot and

  Put their fingers in their mouths a lot.

  PLEASE, EVEN IF YOU DO NOT HAVE BABIES, SMALL CHILDREN OR OWN A PET,

  PLEASE

  FORWARD THIS ON!
