THIS IS CRIMINAL. I did a search of "hartz flea treatment" on the web and came up with plenty of references to this very problem. (Do the words "Ford Explorer - blown up tires" sound familiar?) Apparently, Hartz had a similar problem with their "blockade" product back in 1987.

It's so scary because just yesterday I was at the grocery store, going down the cat food aisle, when I saw this very product and thought to myself "hey, I could save a few bucks - expecially with four cats to treat". I'm so thankful now that I didn't purchase it.

Poor little Squirt - you will be in my thoughts today. Take care Khoyman. You may have just saved my kitties from this horrible fate.

I will now go email every cat owner that I know to warn them of this.


Sid, Jan, Joxer, and Quicy send their regards.
