5. It is heartbreaking and infuriating at the same time.

I believe that one of my cats was poisoned by RoundUp, even though I was very careful to follow the instructions and the manufacturer claims to this day that it is safe for pets if the instructions are followed. My cat succumbed to lymphoma after a long valiant fight. Like you, I think of him every day. Needless to say, I no longer use that chemical on weeds. Humans with lymphoma have been winning big awards from the manufacturer, but there is no recourse for pets and how many more pet owners continue to use this product because they believe the labels?

So I do very much sympathize with you and am so sorry you and they have gone through this ordeal.
