Immediate Actions:
- Stay calm: Panic can make the situation worse.
- Remove the daisy: If possible, gently remove any remaining daisy petals or leaves from the cat’s mouth or fur.
- Call your veterinarian immediately: Contact your veterinarian for professional advice and treatment instructions.
- Monitor your cat: Keep a close eye on your cat for any signs of discomfort or distress, such as:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Lethargy
- Excessive drooling
- Difficulty breathing
What to Do Next:
Follow Veterinarian’s Instructions:
- Follow your veterinarian’s treatment recommendations precisely. This may include:
- Administering activated charcoal to absorb toxins
- Prescribing anti-nausea medication
- Monitoring liver and kidney function
- Supportive care (e.g., fluids, electrolytes)
Home Care:
- Provide plenty of fluids: Dehydration can occur due to vomiting or diarrhea. Encourage your cat to drink water frequently.
- Monitor food intake: If your cat is vomiting or has lost appetite, offer small amounts of bland food (e.g., boiled chicken, white rice) several times a day.
- Create a calm environment: Keep your cat in a quiet, comfortable area where they can rest and recover.
Prognosis:
The prognosis for cats who eat daisies depends on the amount ingested and the individual cat’s health. Most cats will recover with early treatment. However, if the ingestion was significant or the cat has underlying health conditions, the outcome can be more severe.
Prevention:
- Keep daisies and other potentially toxic plants out of your cat’s reach.
- Supervise your cat when they are outdoors to prevent them from ingesting harmful plants.
- Provide your cat with plenty of stimulating activities and enrichment items to keep them entertained and less likely to explore potentially dangerous areas.
