Cat Feces Fumes Poison Vet
<snip>

STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - A vet sent to inspect a strong stench coming from an uninhabited rural cottage in south-west Sweden collapsed, poisoned by fumes from the feces of some 20 cats locked inside for months, a newspaper reported Tuesday.

The regional daily Goteborgs-Posten said the vet spent three days in hospital with hydrogen sulphide poisoning.

1. I believe it.
I would think the cat urine would be the worst part though--that could make one pass out for sure.

3. i once sold and installed
over a thousand dollars worth of white draperies in a new house that reeked of cat piss. i had to go outside a number of times because the smell was making me dizzy- yes someone actually lived there. all his furniture was covered with heavy clear plastic that was turning yellow. i was really glad to get the hell out of there....
