(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
1-24279177- The reporter, a landlord, indicates possible exposure of one of his tenant¿s animals to an herbicide containing the active ingredient FeHEDTA. The reporter indicates he is currently evicting the owner of the affected animal and as retaliation the owner is suing him claiming he is responsible for the death of her animal. The reporter indicates he had used the product on a gravel driveway two-three months ago and the owner¿s sixteen year domestic shorthair cat died some indeterminate time following application. The animal is described by the reporter to be an exclusive indoor animal. He, as a result, stated any topical or ingestion exposure would be impossible. The only potential exposure, according to the reporter, would be inhalation of drift through an open window following spraying of the product. No discreet exposure incident was observed or described. The caller was told the mode of exposure described would not be expected to elicit the outcome seen. The animal¿s death was likely unrelated to the product use. No further information is available.
