1-21241152: A reporter (cat owner) called on 01/06/2010 to report the exposure of her 2 kittens to a flea egg and larvae product containing the active ingredient Methoprene. According to the reporter, the product was applied to both cats on 01/05/2010. Within 15 minutes following product application, Kitten #1 (1st Subform III) was salivating. Within 1 hour, Kitten #1 was trembling. The reporter fed her tuna juice and bathed her with Palmolive dish soap. At the time of the report Kitten #1 was still trembling. The other kitten was asymptomatic. The reporter was advised that the product contains a small amount of the active ingredient and that the product has a wide margin of safety and a low level of toxicity. The reporter was also advised that the signs described are not expected following routine use of the product. A recommendation was made to have the cat evaluated by a veterinarian. The company's hair testing policy was discussed. Several attempts at follow up were unsuccessful. No further information was obtained.
