Do you think one of my pets will die?

Question

i found some advil on the floor and it was all wet so i smelt it and it smelt like cat/dog breath

i don't know if it was one of my cats or my dog

they just licked off the red color and left the rest of the pill on my floor

do you think they will die?

Answer 1

LOL!! They will be fine!!

Answer 2

A jell capsule?

The contents of the pill are inside, so if it wasnt punctured you might be ok.

Call the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center

The telephone number is [phone]. There is a $60 consultation fee for this service.

Be ready with the following information:

- the species, breed, age, s*x, weight and number of animals involved

- the animal’s symptoms

- information regarding the exposure, including the agent (if known), the amount of the agent involved and the time elapsed since the time of exposure.

Have the product container/packaging available for reference.

Please note: If your animal is having seizures, losing consciousness, is unconscious or is having difficulty breathing, telephone ahead and bring your pet immediately to your local veterinarian or emergency veterinary clinic. If necessary, he or she may call the APCC.

Answer 3

Hey Girl,

Please don't try to worry too much. You can call the vet if you want but my cat ate two that I had on my dresser a while ago and nothing happened. Also my dad actually gave tylenol to my dog for something when I was younger. (Not that I would suggest it) but I really do believe they will be fine. Especially if they did not eat the whole thing. Thanks for caring so much about your pets! Try to relax.

Take Care

Answer 4

I don't think one of them would die, but if you notice your cat or dog laying down all the time, then I would recommend a vet.

Answer 5

i doubt either will die from that small of an amount.

Answer 6

I don't think so but i would your your vet.

Answer 7

The red part is not the medication. So they should be fine. But incase they ate some. you should call a vet and ask what to do. My dogs did the same thing, but with a whole bottle of vicoden, and we had to feed them charcol to soak up the medication because it would have made them really sick. But advil is nothing compared to vicoden, so i dont think your animals will be hurt.

But i would call a vet and ask. If you have a pet emergency(i know we do here) you might want to take them in.

Answer 8

No, I think that they will be alright.

Answer 9

Call thee vet woman! Lol i hope not tho,

Good luck with that,

and what was it doing on the floor??

Whatev...

Answer 10

no. the bitter taste will back them off.  

Answer 11

no, they should be fine. if they start acting weird though, call the vet!

Answer 12

I would be more worried if they actually ingested the medication itself. The coloring on the outside should be harmless. But it's always better to go to the vet.

Answer 13

No. Of course not.  But, I would take your pet to the vet.  It will not die, 98/2. 98 being it will not die. But your pets make be allergic, so check!
