Cat Dies After Getting Over-The-Counter
Flea Treatment
Vets Warn Some Animals Can Have Adverse Reactions

WELLSVILLE, Kan. -- A family's beloved cat died this week, shortly after
receiving an over-the-counter flea treatment made by Hartz, KMBC's
Krista Klaus reported.

Greek added that the makers of over-the-counter flea treatments will
reimburse pet owners for vet expenses in the case of an adverse
reaction. In Sturdevant's case, that amounts to about $300, Klaus
reported.




And just *how* do they reimburse pet owners for the devastating emotional
loss of their beloved pets??? ...she says, reeking sarcasm
Unfortunately, most courts still look at our pets only as "property." It
seems that the only way to get this junk off the market would be for courts
to award amounts large enough to make the manufacturing of Hartz products
unprofitable. Since that is unlikely, it is important for us to *stop
buying* ANY Hartz products.
