Swiffer Wetjet Kills pets   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #3808 of 4460 |

A friend sent me this in an email and I thought we should all do our
part in memory of this dog and pass the word!

PLEASE PASS THIS ON!

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.

PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!

WORK FOR A COMPANY WHO'S CONCEPT IS TO RID HOMES OF POISONS LIKE THE
ONE THAT KILLED THOSE PETS!
