(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
The owner applied an unknown amount of Advantage II Extra Large Dog to the cat on 3/27/11. 12 hours later the cat is lethargic, slightly ataxic and not eating or drinking. This was the first time use of the product. The cat is currently at the clinic, however no treatments have been done. The veterinarian reports that the cat passed away on 3/29/11. A necropsy was done in house and the veterinarian feels as though this cats clinical signs were due to dry form of feline infectious peritonitis virus. No further information is expected.

Death
19. Provide supplemental information here
Initial signs are unspecific and may be related to various other causes. Oral product uptake was not witnessed. Sudden death is not anticipated with topical product administration. Although dog product has been used in this case, death would not be expected. Necropsy revealed a dry form of feline infectious peritonitis which probably is responsible for the cats death. Finally, a product connection was ruled out.
