How to use this triage
Choose whether your pet is a dog or a cat, then start typing what it ate. As you type, suggestions appear from our database of 220+ foods and household hazards. Pick the match to see a clear verdict, the warning signs to watch for, and exactly what to do — including when it's an emergency.
This is a fast first step, not a diagnosis. If your pet ate something dangerous, ate an unknown amount, or you can't find it here, call your vet or a pet poison helpline right away — especially for small pets, puppies, kittens and seniors.
