Cat Ingestion of Nepeta Farseni (Catnip)
Warning: Nepeta Farseni (catnip) is generally harmless to cats in small amounts, but excessive ingestion can cause adverse effects.
Symptoms:
- Dilated pupils
- Restlessness or hyperactivity
- Increased vocalization
- Rolling around or rubbing against objects
- Drooling
Steps to Take:
1. Monitor Your Cat:
- Observe your cat for any unusual behavior or symptoms.
- If your cat exhibits any signs of distress, contact your veterinarian immediately.
2. Limit Further Ingestion:
- Remove any remaining catnip from your cat’s reach.
- Keep your cat in a confined area where it cannot access more catnip.
3. Offer Water:
- Encourage your cat to drink plenty of water to reduce the concentration of catnip in their system.
4. Keep Calm:
- Your cat’s behavior while under the influence of catnip may be amusing, but it’s important to remain calm and reassuring.
- Avoid handling or restraining your cat unnecessarily.
5. Contact Your Veterinarian if Necessary:
- If your cat exhibits severe symptoms, such as vomiting, diarrhea, or difficulty breathing, contact your veterinarian immediately.
- Inform your veterinarian about the amount of catnip ingested and the time it occurred.
Additional Considerations:
- Kittens and older cats may be more sensitive to catnip effects.
- Heavy or prolonged ingestion can lead to lethargy or disorientation.
- It’s best to offer catnip to cats in moderation and to avoid giving it to pregnant or nursing cats.
- If you’re concerned about your cat’s reaction to catnip, consult with your veterinarian before offering it to them.
