1-16328355: The reporter, a veterinarian, called on 6/26/08 to report the death of a 3 year male cat following application of a topical flea and tick shampoo containing the active ingredients Allethrin and Methoprene. According to the reporter, the cat had been bathed with the product on 6/25/08. Within 30 seconds of application, the cat had developed seizures. It had been seen at an emergency clinic on 6/25. The blood work done at the clinic showed the cat had developed severe anemia (HCT 11%) and had a high white cell count of 81,000 (range 5,500 ¿ 19,500). The clinic had given the cat a transfusion of oxyglobin. It had then presented to the reporter on 6/26 and had passed away after presentation. The reporter stated that two other cats in the family had also been bathed on 6/25 and had remained asymptomatic. The reporter inquired about and was given information relating to the safety profile of the product. It was discussed that the cat could have had an individual sensitivity to the product. The company sponsored necropsy program was discussed, and the appropriate forms were faxed to the reporter. Necropsy results indicated: 1) Severe anemia, 2) Multifocal liver degeneration and necrosis, 3) Multifocal kidney degeneration, 3) Multifocal myocardial (heart) degeneration, 4) Multifocal pulmonary edema, 5) Multifocal thrombi and emboli, 6) Multifocal, suppurative dermatitis with hyperkeratosis and marked ectoparasitism (fleas). Comments by the attending pathologist indicated that the degeneration and necrosis seen in the liver, kidney, and heart would be consistent with hypoxia of greater than 24 hours and would most likely reflect the cat¿s severely anemic state. The pulmonary edema and multifocal thrombi and emboli would likely be secondary to decreased cardiac performance brought on by hypoxia. Skin changes would be consistent with antigentic stimulation from flea parasitism. The bone marrow had a myeloid:erythroid ratio of 4:1, which would reflect the increased number of circulating leukocytes (white blood cells). Since there was no evidence of inflammation in the internal organs, the increased leukocyte numbers would be consistent with the chronic inflammation seen in the skin. Sections of the brain did not contain any evidence of degeneration, necrosis, inflammation, or neoplasia. According to the pathologist, the seizure activity most likely would have been secondary to hypoxia, decreased cardiac performance, pulmonary edema, and increased hepatocellular (liver) degeneration. An Aerobic culture indicated rare growth of Coagulase negative Staphylococcus species in lung tissue, 1 colony of Coliforms in lung tissue, 1 colony of Streptococcus canis in lung tissue, and light growth of Streptococcus canis in liver tissue.
