a (human) snack of onion and garlic powder covered dry noodles was left up on a shelf and upon returning home, it was discovered that the cat had knocked it down and may have eaten some. how much would it take to make him sick? how long would it take? what would his symptoms be?
any information would be greatly appreciated.My cat ate dry noodles coated in onion and garlic powder, will he get sick?
Onions are toxic to cats.
Onions contain a substance (N-propyl disulphide) which destroys red blood cells in the cat, causing a form of anemia called Heinz body anemia.
The use of garlic, as well as onions, shallots, and chives, has been shown to cause damage to feline red blood cells which can result in hemolytic anemia and eventual death. Raw garlic and onions can also cause ulcers and irritation of the mouth, esophagus and stomach.
You may want to take him straight to the vet.My cat ate dry noodles coated in onion and garlic powder, will he get sick?
If your cat just ate a little bit, he'll probably be okay, but you might want to call your vet and ask what he'd recommend....just to be on the safe side. The main problem with animals eating garlic and onions is a thing called hemolytic anemia...which means the red blood cells are destroyed faster then they can be created. Some symptoms include: fever, weakness, clumsiness, paleness or yellowing of the skin, eyes or gums, increased heart rate, etc. Symptoms don't usually come on right away...they are gradual and appear over time, Hemolytic anemia can be a temporary condition or it can be chronic/long-term.
Here are a couple websites that have more info:

Hemolytic Anemia - http://www.seefido.com/canine-dog-health鈥?/a>
Cut out an article in family circle magazine about six foods in your kitchen that can make your dog or cat sick and posted it on my fridge. They are as follows:
Onions: Hazardous to dogs and cats
3.5 oz. minced or uncooked to cause a reaction in a 25 lb dog.
Effects: Blood in urine, weakness, rapid breathing, fast heart rate. Serious threat to a pet.
Chocolate: as little as 2 oz. can cause a problem in 10 lb. dog
Effects: diarrhea, vomiting, rapid heartbeat or muscle trembling.
Salt: Hazardous to dogs and cats.
1 tsp. can cause a problem in a 10 lb. dog
Effects: Tremors and seizures. May cause death
Raisins/Grapes: Hazardous to dogs
1/2 ounce of raisins or handful of grapes
Effects: Stomach upset and vomiting. May lead to kidney failure and death.
Gum or candy containing Xylitol: Hazardous to dogs
A few pieces could be dangerous.
Effects: Weakness, seizures, liver failure, and sometimes death.
Moldy or spoiled foods: Hazardous to dogs and cats
Mouthful of old cheese can cause illness.
Effects: Vomiting, tremors and seizures. Can be fatal in large amounts.
Call your vet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center at
1-888-426-4435.
Know the pets breed, age, weight, sex, symptoms, what he ate, and how much you think or know he consumed.
If you pet has difficulty breathing, a seizure, or loses consciousness take him to a pet hospital immediately.
Dont know if you can still locate this article because I have had it for a while and I dont know the date of the article. You can visit www.familycircle.com.
probably if it was just a lick or one or two depending on how big they are and how much onion and garlic is on them he may be fine. but if I were you I would call the vet and explain the situation to them and see what they say.
Onion destroys the kidneys, and that damage doesn't reverse itself and heal. The more he eats of it, the more damage he's going to have internally. Onion powder, onion soup, raw onions--all are extremely dangerous.
call the vet, they will know.
i have heard that even giving a cat one serving of gravy, with onion, will kill it.
He must like sushi then to. Try to give it to cat and see what he says. :)
it will kill him

Can anyone tell me where to buy four paws magic coat dry shampoo powder cats and kittens in the UK please?
Hello Everyone, this is driving me crazy! I'm looking for a brilliant dry shampoo for my persian kitten. The only dry shampoo available is Johnsons Coat Care dry shampoo in the UK and I cannot for the life of me find any US website that will post to the UK
My 3 months old persian kitty doesnt like wipes, it doesn't like baths and I don't want to keep washing him because I believe it gives him an excuse not to clean himself. Cats are generally clean animals but my kitty struggles with it and I want him to be in tip top shape. I know some cats don't need bathing my older cat is immaculate. But, my kitten needs the extra grooming and I want to make a good job of it. And want to be cautious with products I use on him too. I hope Dry Shampoo is safe. I have not heard otherwise unless you have.
I clean areas he cannot reach normally, I brush him every day, and I check his eyes etc. But because he has a long coat it becomes matted and singled out if I don't 'fluff' and brush him! I have been told Dry Shampoo is good for this sort of coat as it not only stimulates but it conditions him. He loves it, makes him all fluffy and clean.
I want to buy Four Paws Magic Coat Dry Shampoo Powder for Cats and Kittens. I believe its a US product. But can I find it? NOPE! LOL
If anyone knows of a premium or better Dry Shampoo product for kittens please please please! I'd love more info and any feedback with links would be greatly appreciated. My little one will thank you as mummy wants to make him look and feel great and that can only be done with good advice given from experienced people like yourselves!
THANK YOU! xxCan anyone tell me where to buy four paws magic coat dry shampoo powder cats and kittens in the UK please?

If my kitten licks her coat while she has flea powder on her will it hurt her?
Flea powders are safe if you use one suitable for cats, and for the age of your particular kitten (read the label) and follow the instructions. They will normally tell you to use a moist cloth to rub over the kitten's body in the direction of the hair once you've applied the powder, taking off the powder sitting on the surface of the fur, minimizing the amount she ingests while licking herself.If my kitten licks her coat while she has flea powder on her will it hurt her?
why would you use an over the counter flea powder on a kitten?
i highly suggest FRONTLINE PLUS for cats, as a monthly preventative.If my kitten licks her coat while she has flea powder on her will it hurt her?
My vet said to bathe my 5 week old kitten with Dawn dishwashing liquid for fleas. Study up on kitten bathing before doing so though. I also adopted a 4 week old kitten from the shelter and they put a little Advantage on her. Let the vet do any putting stuff on the kitten as she will know the proper doseage for the kitten's weight and what is safe to put on. The WalMart stuff is a waste of money anyway, it doesn't work.
It might do, some flea powders are pretty harmful. I mainly concerned that you're using a powder at all really - they're outdated methods of flea control because they don't work well and are very often harmful. I've seen both cats and dogs come in with seizures and other bad reactions to store-bought treatment.
Do your cat a favour and wash this crap off. Treat it with something from a vets - yeah it's more expensive, because it works! You can get plenty of treatment from a vets that is perfectly safe for a young kitten, even if they lick it.

Are gel nails truly gel based? Salons say they're a finer grain acryclic powder coated with UV gel cover.?
I've been going to two different salons near me and they both say that gel nails are based on a finer grain powder, but it's suspicious when they pull out white containers with ';gel'; handwritten on them. Could be to easily identify them from the other acrylic containers, but I've found postings at online nail care communities that say gel nails start with a gel liquid base, and other postings that say they are another type of acrylic. Which is it? Am I paying more for acrylics? I had them removed just yesterday, trying to go back to normal, but love the look of very short, manicured french gel nails.Are gel nails truly gel based? Salons say they're a finer grain acryclic powder coated with UV gel cover.?
I have gel nails and from what I understand and have been told, gel nails are just a healthier branch of acrylic with a UV gel polishing over them. They are supposed to be thinner so the your nails can ';breathe'; better. They are also shinier. Everywhere I go, gel nails are more expensive so I doubt you will pay more for acrylic! But I agree, its so hard to go back natural once you've had the cute french manicured gel nails!

Will rattle can paint adhere to non-glossy powder coated surfaces?
I bought a black powder coated bed that I would like to paint with antique white rattle can spray paint and then distress it with sand paper and leather to allow some of the black to show through. The powder coated surface is not glossy at all and, in fact, has a very slight amount of texture to it, kind of like 300 grit sand paper (only it doesn't quite have the same feel as sand paper) Should I sand the black powder coat down at all or should I just clean the surface and cover? Will there be any adhesion issues?Will rattle can paint adhere to non-glossy powder coated surfaces?
Clean the surface and use a primer. If there is any question about paint adhering well, use a primer. That will take and hold your finish coat.
For powder-coated surfaces, lightly sand with 100 to 180 grit sandpaper to allow the primer to grip, them prime and then paint.
Will rattle can paint adhere to non-glossy powder coated surfaces?
Paint adheres well to powder coat. But Spray paind doesn't cure well, and can remain sticky forever. I'd buy a quality paint and rent a spray gun for longer lasting results.
powder coating is like a plastic coating, so get some krylon brand
spray paint, for plastic wipe the frame down with TSP
let dry paint it
