My Hair serum is not that deadly to cats from secondhand exposure, just literally do not put it on your cat.

I've had a few people this week thinking that they couldn't use the hair serum because its toxic to cats.

I have 6 cats, and approximately 130 lbs of cat in my house. They are fine. I've used the stuff on myself plenty. Its toxic to cats when you apply it literally directly to their skin. If I had a bald head, and I put the stuff on, I would not allow my cat to lick the skin where the medicine was applied, but its not going to like transfer to your pillow and give them toxicity or anything.

Someone was so polite that they said they would stop the hair serum for a week before coming into the practice, and this sort of pushed me to realize that the lore on this stuff has gotten a bit out of hand.

Yes, minoxidil is toxic to cats. Just literally do not put the medicine on your cat and its fine. I just never wanted to be responsible for someone seeing their fluffy missing a patch of hair and thinking "I'll put the hair serum on to help because it works for me!" and then killing their cat.

I love cats. I am obsessed with my own cats. I would feel awful if someone hurt their cats with my product, but in short, as long as you don't literally spray it on the cat or let them stand in a puddle of it, its fine.
