(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
On May 21, 2012, shortly after the product was applied, the owner noticed that the cat was symptomatic. The owner bathed the cat with soapy water to try to relieve the symptoms. Later that day, the owner noticed that the cat may have also been lethargic. That afternoon, the owner contacted the Animal Product Safety Service (APSS) to obtain help. The APSS veterinarian stated that the concern was for a taste reaction and possible mild gastrointestinal (GI) upset with an oral exposure. The APSS veterinarian recommended that the owner give the cat a taste treat, monitor the cat at home for GI signs, and call back with questions.
Minor
On May 24, 2012 the owner called the APSS to update the case. The owner stated that although all of the cat's signs had ended just before she contacted the APSS on May 21, 2012, she did give the cat a taste treat and monitored the cat at home for GI signs as instructed. Per the owner, the cat had fully recovered and no new signs developed.
