Hi Patricia.None of my cats got sick drinking this. However, I have 4 drinkwell fountains so this bottle didn't go that far so they were not on it longer than a couple of weeks.To make sure, I would run the list of ingredients past your vet.Take care,Sue.

Hi Patricia, thank you for your question. We are truly sorry we could not respond to it earlier. The product is not harmful to cats over time and we recommend to use it on a daily basis as directed. Some animals can however react differently to different products, therefore if any problems occur, consult your veterinarian.

Hi--The active ingredient is chlorine dioxide, which is supposed to help eliminate plaque-causing bacteria. This ingredient is found in more than one reputable product. I subscribe to Tufts University's cat newsletter and to Cat Fancy magazine. I haven't heard anything negative about this product. Plaque is a long-term health risk for sure, as is the anesthesia used for dental cleanings. Check with your vet, I'm just someone who loves his cat! I'd be more worried about the serious risks of too-frequent vaccinations and site sarcomas. If you learn of anything dangerous about this product, I'd really appreciate it if you'd reply to this post and let me know. Best of luck in your search for information.

No, it's non-toxic but I wouldn't put it in your mouth because it's intentionally foul tasting and has an extremely foul scent that goes away after it has been exposed for about two weeks. It worked for my cat as she won't chew it but I also recommend some cheaper split cable cover that isn't scented but helps prevent damage to cords by being tough. Kitty would need a utility knife to get through the critter cord as it is tougher than even the cable cover is. Just beware the heads of your electronics are still tempting for kitty and she can chew the heads off if you leave the plug in easy reach.

My dog (and even one cat) ate it for years without any problem. I don't know about now -- I haven't bought them for about a year.

Nope. Not harmful. I sprayed my room and didn't wait for it to air out and just started to watch tv. My asthma and my allergies were fine with no reaction. I was worried about my cat, but he was fine too. So final result, it's people and pet friendly and doesn't flare up asthma(I have acute to moderate asthma) and doesn't flare up allergies(I have acute to severe depending on the cause).

Yes, everything I've read, & I've read a lot on air purifiers, states it would be very hazardous to your health & I would hate to see the affect it would have on small animals. You can't even return for 30 or 60 minutes after you've turned off the ozone feature (I just don't remember at this time). This is true with ALL ozone cleaners. I lock my cat up in a back room with another room seperating my cat from the room I run the ozone cleaner. I also put it on a timer so it goes on after I leave then turns off long enough before I return & let my cat out. I purchased this model because of what I found researching air purifier & agree it is a great.

It depends, I have 4 cats, so with all of that fur and dander, I change my filter every7 weeks or so. If you vacuum frequently that helps the filter last longer. When the filter starts moving from white to gray, it's time to dump it.

My cats have been playing with these toys for over 10 years now, they are perfectly healthy. They chew on the feathers a bit when they catch it but more at the tip of the feathers rather than where they are attached, but I can't imagine it is dangerous or it wouldn't be used.

Clay can actually cause respiratory issues with cats because of the dust. I use Worlds Best cat litter as it is natural, clumps nicely and isn't scented.

I got this new litter box 2 months ago and haven't had any problems with it. I was reading a lot of reviews of the cat litter you mentioned earlier though, and I suspect that may be the cause of your cat's problem. It is recommended that when switching cat litters you do it gradually, starting with a mix of 1/3 World's Best and 2/3 your regular cat litter, and from there up the ratio of World's Best over a period of a few weeks. I'd suggest you try emptying out the new litter and mixing it as the manufacturer outlines--see if that solves the issue. Good luck.

My cat was literally no longer using his box at all. He was spraying all over the house. When I moved to an apartment, I knew I had to do something, so I tried this litter. In almost a year, he has sprayed outside of the box three times, and that was in the first few months. He has had ZERO accidents in probably 7 or 8 months. This stuff has been miraculous, in our case.

Interesting question... We have a cat but I've never had issue to use it. I can only say that I will try it for that situation should it happen.

No I havn't..... but I treat my kitty around June every year... and I run a flea comb through him every once in a while... and I don't seem to have any issues.... and he really enjoys the funhouse...

My cat is 8 and doesn't have any problems. I would think it would be ok for an older cat.

I bought mine probably 6 or 7 years ago. I use it daily. It has fallen in the toilet twice, and been dragged by the cord through the house, being banged against the walls, by a freaked out cat. It still works great!

NO!!!!! The only part that gets clogged and ruins the fountain so that it stops working entirely is the motor compartment, which is sealed shut and can't be opened. It has little slits on it that let cat hair in. I have a 2 short hair kitties that use this (really just 1 cat), and it lasted about 5 weeks before it shut down from hair building up in it. I tried to pick it out with a toothpick...yeah, that's absurd..and didn't do much good. I hate this brand with a burning passion. This is my 4th product from them- I keep upgrading thinking I just need a nicer model. NOPE! :(

One of my cats had "stones" a few years ago now and he could have died. Luckily he's been fine and no surgery and I have both of my male catson this dry food for several years now. The other male cat had one infection, but nowhere near as emergent as the other cat. That was scarey and awful, poor thing. This food is expensive, but my cats are just fine and they both eat it, I also have them split one can of wet Fancy Feast cat food each day. I do need to look up how much of the dry I should be feeding, because the cats are seeming to be too heavy
