How to Treat Lobelia Poisoning in Cats
- 1). Watch for signs of lobelia poisoning in the cat. According to Feline Advisory Bureau, mere contact with lobelia could cause skin irritation such as redness, swelling, blistering or rawness, especially on the mouth and throat. ASPCA also details that the plant causes depression, diarrhea, vomiting, excessive salivation, abdominal pain and heart rhythm disturbances.
- 2). Wear a glove to take a sample of the plant and store it in a plastic baggie. Also take a plant label if possible.
- 3). Rush the cat to the vet for an urgent examination. Provide the vet with the plant sample and tell him all the symptoms that the cat displays.
