Oh my goodness!
Thankfully I did not get this for my kids. They have been wanting it. I was thinking about it for Christmas...good thing they found this out. Sheesh, even kid toys you can't be sure of these days.

Yea some friends and I were talking about they looked amusing the other night in walmart. Very glad we didnt buy some... especially with a kitty that eats EVERYTHING in the house!

I saw it on the news last night
, and I am thankful I did, I was considering getting that toy for my daughter for Christmas. I am wondering what is safe to buy the kids,

Scroll down to the bottom! It says "we are currently taking orders for aqua dot products"
Why on earth would they leave that on there with the recall info at the top? That is soo weird! I hope they take that statement off the website and pull everything from the stores asap. How scarry! You just can't trust China!
I'm not buying ANYTHING made in China for my nieces or nephews for Christmas.

working at an emergency vet office we actually saw a sheltie that had eatten these dots. The scariest part was there are no ingredients on the box, on the website, no where. Poison Control didnt even have a clue as to what was in them or even how to help the dog. The poor dog was a mess and at a few points over night we didnt think he was going to make it. Thank god he pulled through, the dog was pretty much in a coma almost the whole night and then out of no where he snapped out of it. Now that they have released the info bout the dots metabolizing into the date rape drug it all makes sense.

All I can Say is FLIPPIN HECK!!! I'm so glad we don't have that over here. Where is it made? I just can't believe this would end up in a child's toy. And lets face it, alot of kids like those sort of activities. I think we are going to see a few more hospitalizations yet.....
