Scratchex - pyrethin toxicity

[smokey the elder]

They should yank all the permethrin containing products for topical use. Pyrethrin has relatively low toxicity, but permethrin can be very toxic.

The thread has been moved to the Happy Endings message board. Here's an update from IMOM: from the vet:

Thanks so much for your support of "Snowy" Parrish. He has made a remarkable recovery and been discharged from the hospital today. His sister "Callie" who was much less affected is fine as well.

Thanks everyone for your fast help! I was hoping to see if I could get the owner to agree to s/n of the cats while there but the vet has already discharged them. :-( I didn't have any direct contact with the owner. The owner doesn't have a computer at home and the vet's office helped her fill out the application at the office.

Thanks everyone for rallying together to save these two cats! And thanks for those who pledge to the general emergency fund - your donations made it possible for treatment of Snowy to begin immediately!
