Shouldn't be a problem, but keep an eye on him, just in case.
amstel light. Just googled - supposedly hard liquor would kill him but the small doses of beer he licked probably won't affect him, right?

I'm going to rinse him off now, just in case.
Maybe you should've done that before posting on the internet to bunch of tech nerds and 14 year olds. Doesn't sound like you're too worried at all if you didn't wash him off immediately.

Dude, have you ever washed a cat? It's not an easy task - I still have some scars from the time he got into the trash and I had to wash him.

Anyways, it's a day later and he's fine, though not as perky as usual. He was pacing a bit as well, which i found odd but funny.

I know this is way out of line but I was looking for my thread on ferrets and found this by accident.

Decided to bump because I need some info.
My neighbors in the apartments keep bringing their dogs over here to crap on my lawn.
Should I settle their hash with chilli powder on the grass early in the morning, or should I slip some beer into their water dish late at night?

What would you recommend? Guinness? Miller light? Or perhaps some really cheap no-name stuff from the grocery store?

This thread started out being about pussy and beer, but ended up being about ferrets and dog poo. :(

If you really cared you would have taken 30 seconds to call a vet before asking all the doctors on ATOT.

Done, though now my lip is all bloody and my breathe smells like a cat's butt - does that mean it worked?

Gave him some wet cat food - he loves that stuff and it makes him down water as well. I'll rinse him off in a bit too. I doubt it was enough to be something to worry about so i'm not quite running to the vet yet.</blockquote>

I think you might have frenched the wrong end there....

It was the right end to him! :Q

I kid, I kid.. I love that little asshole. He's doing fine, seems to have less energy than normal but my roommate, a cat owner since she was a wee lass, assures me that he'll be fine.
