Hello,

OK, I'm sure none of this is "good" for cats, but we had a Scott's Lawn Care worker come and treat our apartment complex today with lawn care products -fertilizers and pesticides.

Does anyone know if this stuff is bad for the cats? One of my neighbors cats was out today, and of course there's the ferals...

Honestly they all have the potential to be harmful. Depending on what chemicals they used and not knowing, I couldn't say for sure.

All I can say is that my mom's neighbor has his lawn treated regularly, and "Chemlawn" warned him not to let the cats out for at least 24 hours, so I'd assume the stuff they use is fairly toxic.
