My brother's cat just ate a glow stick

[Mark R]

She's running around drooling and pawing at her mouth.

Well, it's been overnight - and the cat is still alive.

Aside from a little bit of burning (sensation, not physical), the liquid inside is non-toxic. Just wash the cat's face out a bit with water, in case it got in her eyes.

Put it in a dark room, make it meow and post the pics.

What a fun way to celebrate caturday

i sure hope its non-toxic. can you call a local vet to see what could happen to the cat? did it swallow the whole stick? or what?

 

[krunchykrome]

If you dont see neon poop in a day or so, then I'd be concerned.

 

[randay]

vet or pet cemetary.

 

[sygyzy]

It's non toxic. You can drink it or coat your mouth with it for a cool but disgusting effect.

If so Vet ASAP!!!

I'd be more concerned if it started taking "E" and began dancing spasmodically.

 

[swtethan]

I too say definitely call the vet. They'd surely know a bit more than ATOT.

lies!

swallowing the whole stick would be dangerous, blockage wise. but the stuff inside isn't toxic... unless it's really old, i think a certain color(red?) used to be made with toxic stuff, but that was like 20 years ago.

Yeah, I sure hope it's non-toxic. Although the foaming at the mouth business and running around, sure doesn't look like it.

My brother informs me that they're not that bad - they just contain a mixture of hydrogen peroxide, acetonitrile and tri-choloracetic acid.

Having said that, the cat does appear to have recovered - at least partially.

Don't those have a glass vial inside that you break to start the chemical reaction?

Even if the fluid itself is non-toxic, the glass can't be good news...I'd take it to a vet anyway...

 

[Savarak]

it cant possibly be "good" as in your header, unless it gives the cat super powers

 

[PHiuR]

Is this good or bad?

Good.

The glass nor liquid will be a problem as it's surrounded in plastic.

As other people in the thread stated, depending on the size of the glow stick (3"+) I'd take it to the vet because there's no way the cat's going to pass that thing. But imagine the video taken of a glostick coming out a cats a**........ :laugh:

SHENS! How can a cat physically swallow a glow stick. Even if this did happen, only a moron wouldn't immediately go to the vet.
