Article: This will help you decide on whether it is correct or inappropriate to make the cat vomit. If you have access to the packaging make a note of the following information: trade name, active ingredient(s), and strength. In addition, try to estimate how much the cat has consumed. (Was it a new box? How much is missing?) Your first contacts should be your vet, the pet poison hotline, and the product manufacturer. If you have access to the internet, search the active ingredient. It is helpful to phrase the search like this: Is [name of product] toxic to cats? Some products may be safe when ingested and if you find that out, you need go no further. If the substance is poisonous, the next step is to decide whether to make the cat vomit or not. Do not give your kitty any food, water, milk, salt, oil or any other home remedy unless you know what poison the cat ingested and the specific medication or first aid. Giving any of these without any consultation or instruction from a veterinarian or a Pet Poison Helpline may worsen the condition of your cat. The vet or the helpline will have more knowledge and skill in determining what to do or what to give your poisoned cat. Do not make your cat do anything without instruction from a vet or a pet poison helpline. Some poisons (particularly corrosive acids) can do more harm if vomiting is induced. Only induce emesis (sickness) if: The poison was eaten within the past two hours. If it was eaten more than two hours ago, it has already been absorbed, so vomiting is useless. The cat is conscious and able to swallow. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious, semi-conscious, or seizing/mentally altered cat. The poison is NOT an acid, strong alkali or petroleum product. You're 100% certain you know the poison was ingested. Acids, alkalis and petroleum products cause caustic burns. Irrespective of when they were consumed, do not induce vomiting because they will likely damage the gullet, throat and mouth on the way back up. Strong acids and alkalis are found in household rust removers, glass etching fluids, and cleaning products such as bleach. Petroleum products include lighter fluid, gasoline and kerosene. As previously mentioned you should not make the cat vomit, instead encourage her to drink full-fat milk or eat a raw egg. If she will not drink freely, then use the child's dosing syringe to drip feed up to 100 ml of milk into her mouth. This will help dilute the acid or alkali, and neutralize it. A raw egg has a similar action. t if instructed to. You will need a 3% solution of hydrogen peroxide (do NOT use the more concentrated hydrogen peroxide supplied with some hair perms or dyes) and a teaspoon or child's dosing syringe.You will find it easier to syringe peroxide, rather than spoon it into her mouth. Here's what you should know: The dose of 3% hydrogen peroxide is 5 ml (one teaspoon) per 5 lb body weight, by mouth. An average cat weighs around 10 lb, so you will need about 10 ml (two teaspoons worth.) Repeat this every ten minutes, for a maximum of three doses. To dose the cat, hold her securely and gently insert the syringe into the cat's mouth, behind the upper fangs. Depress the plunger, dribbling about of ml at a time onto the cat's tongue. Give her time to swallow each time and never shoot the full amount in quickly since you may flood her mouth and then she will inhale the peroxide into her lungs. After vomiting, your aim is now to reduce the absorption of poison that has passed further down into the intestine. For this you need activated charcoal. The dose is 1 gram of dry powder for every 1 lb body weight of the cat. An average sized cat will require around 10 grams. Dissolve the powder in the smallest volume of water possible, to form a thick slurry, and syringe it into the cat's mouth. Repeat this dose every 2 to 3 hours, for 4 doses.
