My pet ate something poisonous: what to do
Human meds, rat poison, antifreeze or chocolate? Do’s and don’ts.
Remove the source, keep the packaging, call a vet or 24-hour clinic immediately and wash toxins off skin or eyes. Never induce vomiting, give milk, oil or salt water without vet instructions; many poisons act hours later.
