If your cat has eaten Turbagia, it is important to seek veterinary care immediately. Turbagia is a genus of flowering plants that can be toxic to cats, and ingestion can lead to serious health problems, including:
- Gastrointestinal upset (vomiting, diarrhea)
- Respiratory distress
- Central nervous system depression
- Liver damage
- Death
What to do if your cat has eaten Turbagia:
- Call your veterinarian immediately.
- Gather as much information as possible about the plant, including:
- What part of the plant was eaten (leaves, flowers, stems, etc.)
- How much of the plant was eaten
- When the plant was eaten
- Take your cat to the veterinarian. The veterinarian will perform a physical examination and may recommend bloodwork, X-rays, or other tests to assess the extent of the poisoning.
- Follow your veterinarian’s instructions for treatment. Treatment may include:
- Inducing vomiting or administering activated charcoal to remove the toxin from the stomach
- Giving fluids to prevent dehydration
- Providing supportive care, such as oxygen therapy or medication to control vomiting and diarrhea
- Monitor your cat closely at home. Once your cat is home, watch for any signs of distress, such as vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or difficulty breathing. If any of these symptoms develop, contact your veterinarian immediately.
Prognosis:
The prognosis for cats who have eaten Turbagia depends on the amount of the plant that was eaten and the timeliness of treatment. With prompt veterinary care, most cats can make a full recovery. However, cats who have eaten large amounts of the plant or who have developed serious health problems may have a guarded prognosis.
