For those of you with animals......

> I recently had a neighbor who had their 5-year old German shepherd dog put
down due to liver failure. The dog was completely healthy until a few weeks ago.
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 antifreeze is one of the ingredients. (Actually he was told it's a compound
which is one molecule away from antifreeze.)
>
> Therefore, just by the dog walking on the floor cleaned with the solution,
then licking its own paws, it ingested enough of the solution to destroy its
liver.
> Soon after his dog's death, his housekeepers' two cats also died of live! r
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
