It's so sad to hear about the poor animals that perished in the fire, especially from such a simple thing as a plug-in. I had a problem with them that almost killed one of my kids. When we first moved into our motor home a few years back we decided to install two plug-ins so that the smaller place would stay fresh smelling. About three days after plugging them in one of my kids got very sick . . . lethargic and refusing to eat. A trip to the vet and a thorough examination including x-rays and blood work showed nothing. We were told that we should take our baby girl home and cherish the time that we had left with her. But before we left our vet started questioning us as to whether anything had changed in her environment lately. The only thing we could think of was the plug-ins. As soon as we got home we threw those things out, opened up the RV and since the weather was permissible we put the ferts in their outside cage for several hours. We cut the fans on without running the AC, opened all of the windows, vaccumed the carpets and wiped everything down. Imagine our surprise when our girl started perking up the next day!! After a day or two she was back to her usual loving self! Needless to say those harmful things will NEVER be used in our house again!!! [Posted in FML 6480]
