About this ebook

Pet Exposure Dangers sheds light on the often-overlooked risks that common household detergents pose to pets. Many pet owners are unaware of the potential dangers lurking in their cleaning cabinets, underestimating the severity of health consequences following exposure. The book highlights the inherent toxicity of many cleaning agents and the frequency with which pets encounter these substances, emphasizing that regulatory standards don't adequately account for animal safety. For instance, metabolic differences mean substances safe for humans can be highly toxic to dogs and cats. The book approaches this topic by outlining chemical compositions and their effects on pets' organ systems, supported by case studies and data from veterinary toxicology databases. It begins by introducing detergent classes and their constituents, systematically exploring physiological impacts, exposure routes (ingestion, inhalation, dermal contact), and clinical signs. Pet Exposure Dangers uniquely relies on a large, previously unpublished dataset of detergent-related pet poisoning cases, providing novel insights into their prevalence and severity. The book progresses from examining specific detergent types to discussing preventive measures, safer alternatives, and regulatory reforms.
