1-39958927 - The reporter, a pet owner, indicated that his cats may have been exposed to an herbicide containing the active ingredients 2,4-D and mecoprop-p and to a non-registrant fertilizer with 2% iron. The reporter applied the products to his lawn about one week prior to initial contact with the registrant. The reporters 11 cats like to roll on the lawn and may have had skin contact with the herbicide and with the non-registrant fertilizer. Since application three of the reporters cats (Subform III #1) have passed away. Prior to death the cats were vomiting, anorexic, lethargic, they had increased liver enzymes and their eyes were dilated. Caller did not indicate what type of medical treatment these three cats underwent prior to death. At the time of the call the reporter indicated that he had two other cats with the same symptoms that were currently hospitalized. The reporter was advised that the described exposure to the registrant product would not result in the described symptoms. The reporter was further advised that iron toxicity could potentially result in the described symptoms. Continued veterinary care was recommended to help determine an underlying cause and appropriate treatment. No additional information is available.
