Tangors, being a citrus fruit, can cause some stomach upset in cats. Here’s what you should do:

Monitor your cat:

  • Look for signs of vomiting, diarrhea, or lack of appetite.
  • If your cat seems lethargic or is in pain, consult a veterinarian immediately.

If your cat seems okay:

  • Limit their food intake for a few hours, but make sure they have fresh water available.
  • You can offer small portions of bland food like boiled chicken or white rice after a few hours.

Amount matters:

  • The severity of the reaction depends on how much of the tangor your cat ate. A small bite is less concerning than a large chunk.

When to see a vet:

  • If your cat shows any signs of distress, don’t hesitate to contact your veterinarian.
  • It’s always better to be safe than sorry, especially if your cat has underlying health conditions.

Here are some resources that might be helpful:

  • American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) Animal Poison Control Center: This is a 24/7 animal poison control hotline. There may be a consultation fee. – (888) 426-4435
  • Your veterinarian’s contact information: Having their number readily available can save valuable time in case of an emergency.

I hope this helps!
