If your cat has eaten purple or blue grape, take immediate action:
1. Contact Your Veterinarian Immediately:
- Call your veterinarian or the nearest animal hospital for guidance.
- Provide them with the approximate amount of grapes consumed and the cat’s age, weight, and condition.
2. Induce Vomiting (if directed by the veterinarian):
- If instructed by the veterinarian, induce vomiting using hydrogen peroxide (3% solution) at a dosage of 1 teaspoon per 10 pounds of body weight.
- Administer orally using a dropper or syringe.
- Repeat every 10-15 minutes until the cat vomits.
3. Activated Charcoal Administration (if directed by the veterinarian):
- Administer activated charcoal (1 gram per kilogram of body weight) orally or through a veterinary tube if vomiting cannot be induced.
- Activated charcoal adsorbs toxins in the digestive tract.
4. Monitor Your Cat Closely:
- Monitor your cat’s condition closely for signs of toxicity, such as:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Lethargy
- Abdominal pain
- Seizures
5. Emergency Treatment:
- If your cat develops severe symptoms, such as seizures or difficulty breathing, seek immediate emergency veterinary care.
Additional Information:
- Grapes and raisins contain a substance that can cause kidney failure in cats, even in small amounts.
- The exact mechanism of toxicity is unknown, but it is believed to be related to the presence of tartaric acid.
- Symptoms usually appear within 12-48 hours of consumption.
- Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for successful outcomes.
