I purchase Hartz Ultraguard Pro Flea and Tic Drops for cats, for my cats as a preventative flea treatment. As a responsible pet owner, I like to prevent those things before they happen.
Both of my cats were extremely reluctant to let me put the medicine on them, and I applied the formulas to the backs of their necks as directed so that they could not lick the substance while it dried for about thirty minutes.
Four hours later, my cats are sitting in the same spot. They are sisters and are both the same age, about 2 years old now. One os completely white and the other is a grey marble tabby colored. Neither one of their necks were dry and as I mentioned they were in the same spot four hours later after I applied the medication to them. They were both hunched down on their haunches and had their eyes squeezed shut tightly. I began to get worried because they are both very active creatures, it was not like them at all to just remain in one place for so long and not move. So I looked up the Hartz flea and tic drops online and was devastated to find out that I had just given my two best friends a deadly poison.
I washed them twice with Dawn and once with baby shampoo, as the pet owners who were already victims of Hartz products advised me to do. I then brushed out their coats to make sure that I had been able to wash out every bit of the toxic poison to keep it from causing any more harm t them. The marble tabby colored one must have pulled away from me when I was applying the drops because she had gotten most of the substance just behind her head under her left ear, which I noticed was extremely irritated and had already turned dark pink after less than one day of exposure. The all white cat, with her all white and very delicate features, had already shown signs of hair loss on her neck and the skin had also turned a bright color of pink. She was meowing at me and I thought that she was hungry until I ran across this site that, I believe, saved my friends' lives.
I am appalled that these products are sold on the market. They obviously target low income families since they were sold at WalMart for a fraction of the costs of Frontline and other medications similar to it. Hartz Mountain Corporation needs to remove that product from the market. They need to give a public apology. They need to give an individual apology to all that have lost pets as a result of using their toxic "pet care" products and they need to bring back the pets that they have killed. Shame on them and shame on those that allow this to continue.
