Warning
to pet bird owners!
A
few products have been reported to us as potentially fatal to your
feathered friends. We would like to post them here as an awareness
service for our visitors. We hope that others will send
us email with specifics of any new or old products that have
caused harm to their pets so we can prevent it from happening to
others.
- A
new couch treated with chemical fabric protection. Within 24 hours
of delivery the bird died of extensive physiological changes consistant
with toxic exposure (according to necropsy results)
-
cooking bags (aluminum/plastic combination)reportedly give off
a metallic smell, create respiratory difficulties, and cause burning
of the eyes. No bird died in this report. This is only a warning.
Use with caution even at low temperatures or better yet avoid
the product completely. Ill effects were reported in less than
one hour.
The
Environmental Working Group (EWG) is working to expose more information
on the toxic properties of common household items, specifically
non stick cooking items and stain protected fabric. To view their
