Pet owners said their cats have died in horrific ways just days after taking the drug.
The drug is called Solensia.
Our sister station WSB in Atlanta reports it is supposed to turn back time for animals. Instead, some pet owners say the drug killed their cats.
“Do not give this to your pet,” said Kelly Minnella.
Her cat, Stuart, died after getting his third shot in July.
Zoetis, the maker of Solensia, told WSB, “We are deeply committed to listening to -- and working with -- veterinarians and pet owners, and we take very seriously our obligation to gather as much relevant information as possible when adverse events are reported to us.”
