(p.ex. description des symptômes tels que la fréquence et la gravité
On August 24, 2016 the cat became skittish. On August 25, the cat developed vomiting, diarrhea, and dyspnea. Shortly after the owner took the cat to the veterinarian where fluid therapy, atropine, doxapram, diphehydramine, and oxygen were given. Later that afternoon the cat died, so the owner took the cat home and buried the body. Later that evening the owner contacted the Animal Product Safety Service (APSS). The APSS veterinarian stated propoxur is a carbamate insecticide. The APSS veterinarian also stated typically carbamate toxicity can result in salivation, defecation, dyspnea, emesis (SLUDDE) signs, bradycardia, and possible nicotonic signs including tremors and seizures. The APSS veterinarian finally stated the most common signs reported in cats in Animal Poison Control Center (APCC) database include hypersalivation, agitation, hyperesthesia and gastrointestinal (GI) upset. The APSS veterinarian recommended a necropsy and stressed the importance of time in a situation like this. If the owner wanted to pursue a necropsy, the body would need to be taken to the veterinary clinic and have the veterinarian call for information for necropsy submission. The owner asked whether the attending veterinarian could collect samples and send them in or if she could get the body back. The APSS veterinarian stated we can look into it, but that is not typically how it is handled. The APSS veterinarian referred the owner to the manufacturer (for questions relating to product and reimbursement).

The APSS veterinarian stated that the substance was considered to have a not related likelihood of causing the clinical situation. On August 29, 2016 an APSS technician called the attending veterinary clinic to discuss necropsy. A message was left for the veterinarian, but according to the receptionist it didn't appear the owner ever brought the cat's body into the clinic.
