1-26694526- The reporter, a pet owner, indicated her animals had been exposed to an insecticide containing the active ingredient tetrachlorvinphos and methoprene. The pet owner indicated she had applied the product to two 11.75 week 3.5 pound cats the day prior to her initial contact with the registrant. The pet owner had also treated the animals an oral anti-parasitic containing the active ingredient piperazine the same day. The pet owner indicated the one cat whose sex she could identify as female (Subform III, #1) had developed lethargy ataxia, vocalization and confusion since application.
