Call your veterinarian immediately.
Linaria is a genus of flowering plants that includes foxgloves and buttercups. These plants contain cardiac glycosides, which can be toxic to cats. Symptoms of cardiac glycoside poisoning include:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal pain
- Weakness
- Lethargy
- Difficulty breathing
- Seizures
- Cardiac arrhythmias
If your cat has eaten any part of a Linaria plant, it is important to seek veterinary attention immediately. Treatment for cardiac glycoside poisoning typically involves supportive care, such as fluids, electrolytes, and oxygen therapy. In severe cases, your cat may need to be hospitalized for monitoring and treatment.
Do not induce vomiting or give your cat any medication without first consulting your veterinarian.
