Flea Treatment Alert!

Post by bobbys girl »

OH read this in his online copy of the Staffordshire Evening Sentinel. This may just be a localised problem, but I though it was worth red-flagging - just in case.

It isn't local, they don't know how many packs were mislabelled and where they ended up. I first saw it on an American site I follow, then it came up as a UK wide warning. The more publicity it gets though the better.

So if ANYONE has any Armitage flea treatment for cats then take it back straight away.

There was actually a thread on here about it on Tuesday 15th November, the Armitage Flea drop thread, when the warning first went out.

I don't know if there is anything the mods could do so that warning threads like that are stickied at the time, or how we could let the mods know that a thread is important enough to need a sticky.
