I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS TRUE OR NOT- BUT JUST INCASE IT IS I FIGURED I WOULD SHARE THIS!!--ALL PET OWNERS PLEASE READ

I just got this e-mail. I don't have a Swiffer Wet Jet here to verify it but I thought I would post it just incase!

I recently had a neighbor who had to have their 5-year
old German Shepherd dog put down due to liver failure. The dog was
completely healthy until a few weeks ago, so they had a necropsy done to
see what the cause was. The liver levels were unbelievable, as if the
dog had ingested poison of some kind. The dog is kept inside, and when
he's outside, someone's with him, so the idea of him getting into
something unknown was hard to believe. My neighbor started going through
all the items in the house. When he got to the Swiffer Wetjet, he
noticed, in very tiny print, a warning which stated "may be harmful
to small children and animals." He called the company to ask what
the contents of the cleaning agent are and was astounded to find out
that anitfreeze is one of the ingredients.(actually he
Was told it's a compound which is one molecule away from
anitfreeze). Therefore, just by the dog walking on the floor cleaned
with the solution, then licking it's own paws, and the dog eating from
its dishes which were kept on the kitchen floor cleaned with this
product, it ingested enough of the solution to destroy its liver. Soon
after his dog's death, his housekeepers' two cats also died of liver
failure. They both used the Swiffer Wetjet for quick cleanups on their
floors. Necropsies weren't done on the cats, so they couldn't file a
lawsuit, but he asked that we spread the word to as many people as
possible so they don't lose their animals.
