The Swiffer subject has been around for ages now, and is proclaimed to be safe. I do not find it so. Here is what happened with my Sassy in relation to Swiffer:
I began using Swiffer. The performance as a product was okay. However, Sassy started having BIG problems. She had such severe bloody diarrhea that I thought she was dying. I rinsed her off to take her to the vet and all I could see was blood and more blood. I was terrified.
I got her medicine, treated her and she got okay. However it happened again. And again. I tried my best to figure out what I was doing that was different in the past. It finally dawned on me that these episodes happened the day after I used the Swiffer product. I stopped using it and Sassy no longer suffers.
So....like people, some animals may have a reaction to something that does not bother others. Sassy did. I am so thankful I was able to figure it out.
I believe that Sassy's small size (4.5 pounds) exacerbated the problem. I will never purchase Swiffer again. I don't want my baby to suffer for my convenience and that was what Swiffer represented to me. A convenient product.
I am certain that there are many that will disagree with me. That's okay. I just ask that you not 'beat me up' about it like one did the last time I related this story. This is my personal experience and if it helps another little one, I will be very glad that I shared it yet again.

I am so sorry that someone mistreated you the last time you posted about the problems you were having. I have never really thought about our furbabies having different sensativities.. just like people... but it makes sense to me. I am so glad your baby improved and no longer has that problem.. It would have scared me to death.
Like I said at the start.. this was sent to me and I would have felt horrible if something happened to anyones baby because of this product, and I had not at least warned everyone and let them make their own decisions. Personally, I would not ever use something that may harm either my furbabies or my grandbabies.
I want to thank you all for your comments. It is always best to talk to each other and communicate our feelings and experiences. You are wonderful people.
