(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
On March 12, 2012 the owner noticed that the cat was drooling. A short time later, the owner contacted the Animal Product Safety Service (APSS) to obtain help. The APSS veterinarian stated that the risk would be for a taste reaction and gastrointestinal (GI) upset. During the consultation with the APSS, the owner gave the cat 1/4 cup of milk to dilute the product, and the cat had taken a few licks. The APSS assistant recommended that the owner monitor the cat for GI signs such as vomiting, manage any vomiting by giving nothing by mouth for 45 minutes and then slowly reintroducing water and then food, bathe the cat with liquid dish washing detergent (LDWD) if the cat continued to groom and have a taste reaction, and call back with questions.
