1-40467034 - The reporter, a pet owner, indicated that her cat was exposed to an insecticidal collar containing the active ingredients tetrachlorvinphos and methoprene. The collar was applied to the reporters 6-year-old, 25 pound, male indoor and outdoor domestic shorthaired cat eight days prior to initial contact with the registrant. The day after the collar was applied the cat was lethargic, it was having trouble walking and it didnt want to eat. The cat was brought to a veterinarian on that day but the veterinarian did not think there was anything wrong with the animal. The following two days the cat still seemed lethargic and weak. The next day (four days after the collar had been applied) the cat was even weaker; it did not move much at all and it looked drunk when it walked. The cat was brought back to a different veterinarian that day and it was treated with atropine and it was sent home with several bags of fluids. The following day the cat had loose stools and muscle twitching. That night the cat was not sleeping in his usual place and when the owner found the cat, the cat bit her on the wrist. The wrist quickly became swollen and red. By the morning (Six days after the collar had been applied) the cat had passed away. The reporter did indicate that the cat was not up to date on its rabies vaccine. The reporter was advised that the described symptoms are not consistent with normal use of the product. A necropsy was recommended to determine a cause for the cats symptoms and to rule out a rabies exposure to the reporter. No additional information is available.
