If you suspect your pet has been poisoned you should:
- remain calm
- remove your pet from the area where the poisoning occurred
- be sure the pet is breathing and behaving normally, if not, go immediately to an emergency clinic
- contain the poisonous material to prevent additional exposure
- obtain a sample of the questionable material, store in a plastic baggy for preservation and ease of transport
- the more evidence you can supply your vet, the easier it will be to diagnose the problem and render a solution.
- call your vet's office for guidance prior to your visit or contact the 24-hour pet poison hotline at 800-213-6680 (there is probably a fee).
- do not induce vomiting unless your vet recommends this
- never give pet oil, milk, food, salt or anything orally without talking to a vet first
The prognoses for poisoning is better the sooner it is reported. Never hesitate to get help as soon as possible. Immediate treatment could save your pet's life.
Once it is all over and you are safe and sound back at home, provide your cat or dog with a great tasty treat from Life's Abundance.
