Monitor your cat for any signs of gastrointestinal upset, such as:
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal pain
- Lethargy
- Loss of appetite
If your cat shows any of these symptoms, contact your veterinarian immediately.
White radishes are not toxic to cats in small amounts, but they can cause digestive problems if eaten in large quantities. The radish contains a compound called raphanin, which can irritate the stomach and intestines.
If your cat has eaten a large amount of white radish, you should:
- Induce vomiting by giving your cat a small amount of hydrogen peroxide (3%).
- Administer activated charcoal to absorb any remaining toxins.
- Keep your cat hydrated by giving it plenty of water.
You should also contact your veterinarian to let them know what happened. They may want to see your cat for a checkup to make sure there are no other health problems.
In most cases, cats who eat white radish will not experience any serious health problems. However, it is important to monitor your cat for any signs of gastrointestinal upset and to contact your veterinarian if you have any concerns.
