We were using 1/8 of a tablet, and yes I am a ****ing idiot, not a troll.

Acetaminophen & Cats


All should be aware of the toxicity of acetaminophen in cats:
A quick Google search revealed that apparently Acetaminophen is very

toxic
to cats:


"Acetaminaphen, the main ingredient of Tylenol and several other

non-aspirin
pain relievers. It possesses both analgesic and antipyretic effects.

The
feline toxic dosage is 50-100 mg/kg. One regular-strength tablet (325

mg)
may be toxic to cats, and a second could be lethal. One "extra

strength"
(500 mg) tablet can result in toxicosis."
I just learned this the hard way.


You ****ing idiot. One human dose of *anything* will kill a cat. Even

if
the stuff was safe for cats, a human dose on a cat would be like a human
taking twenty doses. Have you ever had to take 20 tablets lately? Or

do
you have a 160lb kittycat? And why the hell would you assume that what

is
safe for humans is safe for cats?

This has *got* to be a troll. Nobody is that stupid.

er, rather, was an f___ing idiot: Never again. Although we have used this
medicine in the past with large dogs that have had hip problems. But I
should have done a Google search first....
Again, thanks to all with words of kindness, to those more harsh: live and
let live.

Scot, I'm sorry for your loss. I guess one point to remember is that cats
are very different from dogs and most human medicines that dogs can
tolerate very well are disastrous for cats. I always check with my vet or
other cat owners before I give any human medicine to my cats.

Did you see your name anywhere was it include in my post.
I was talking about AZ just because you post is above mine means nothing
It was not even listed by the server when I posted mine when you assume you
end up becoming the first 3 letters

Then maybe you should specify who you are calling an idiot. You said:

"Scott FYI not smart to post you personal information on the web idiots

Ummmm since my post was above yours (and sent before yours timewise as
shown in the headers), what do you expect me to think? Perhaps you are the
real idiot.

Patty,

What is the problem? He addressed it to SCOTT, that's the first word in
his post.

He also properly linked the response to Scott's post, not to yours.
Doesn't your newsreader show the links?

You need to at least hide that chip on of your shoulder.

Thanks Rhonda well said.
For that person that just started posting this week. She is already getting
off to a bad start. It is a good way to end up in a kill file or a good way
to start a good flaming

loading up the firewood and lighter fluid
