    Default Sebastian may have ingested hand warmer powder😩. Please HELP!

    Not realizing that a hand warmer pack was inside stuffed animal. He was left unattended for a little, when I came back the powder was opened and on the stuffy. Package says call poison control if ingested. He is acting fine. I am frantic of course. If he got any it was a small amount. What should I do????Name:  image.jpg

    It looks like he will be okay. Read the attached:

    Thank you!! Went on pet poison control just now. I feel so bad! Watching him and he is acting completely normal.

    As CM stated, it is not really toxic. I bet he really did not eat any anyway, it must taste awful! But watch him carefully and it is standard to keep well hydrated for 24 hours to help flush everything out. Maybe give him some watermelon or some lightly sweetened water so he will fill up.

    UPDATE: I have been closely monitoring Sebastian since the hand warmer incident. Pushing liquids, not feeding any greens. Feeding grapes and will get watermelon today. He does not eliminate on his own, so I have been stimulating every couple of hours. Still has iron poopy. His behavior has been normal. Thank you for your help!!💜🐿☮️
