Insecticide Toxicity in Cats

My cat came in contact with First Defense insect repellent my son sprayed it on the inside because he saw a trail of ants and now my cat has a skin rash he scratches uncontrollably and bites himsel I took him to the vet and had all type of test done they prescribed a steroid and he also had an ear infection so they gave him some cream for the ear unfortunately it did not stop his scratching and the vet bill was about $600 and I still don't know what to do about my cats skin problem

I had a beloved cat for 4 years that died from all the symptons listed above, he was my ESA animal and best friend. I believe he was poisioned and was wondering what i should do, let it go ? Or investigate it ?

Wanted to use a spray bottle so emptied my kitchen cleaner surface spray and washed out a few times! My kitten was being naughty so squirted him a few times- he didn’t really care about the water. Went back to the bottle and it still smelt like the product before in it. My kitten seems fine! He doesn’t smell of the chemical at all. I’ve re wipped him with a clean flannel. Just worried and feel so stupid!

I applied odomos onto my skin and usually i wash my hands after that but this day i forgot to wash or not sure but then an hr later i had to prepare food for her and at that time i was holding the food ... she ate the food but then i realised the ointment i applied ... she recently delivered kittens which is 6 days old .... shuld i worry

Hi,a stray cat had kittins in my yard so i have been feeding her and brought her and the kitties inside,the other night a cockroach was on the floor in my bed room and i sprayed with atlas multi insect spray around my bed not knowing that ine of the kittens were under my bed they are 5weeks old now the one that was under the bed has been vomiting ,sleepy,not interested in eating frim mum or the solid cat food, im freaking out i sprayed two days ago he was fine untill this afternoon.

Katie was given flea drops of permethrin for dogs started shaking and his came out hours later weak, couldn't walk, now hours later he is eating drinking grooming himself, walking yet wobbly and following my have with his head back and forth across floor. Can I give him milk

Our cat tiger has licked the spray called off. It has been less than 24 hours
He has thrown up the food and it smells like chemicals. We are giving him water in a syringe. We have also mixed a dose of activated charcoal. Next will be a mix of milk and water. We are broke and can't afford a vet.

My otherwise healthy, 5yo cat has been lethargic and barely eating for 6 days. We took her to the vet 3 days ago and she had normal labs (CBC and chemistries), normal xray, afebrile and benign abdominal exam. She got SQ fluids and a 24h antiemetic shot. Since then she's continued to be very lethargic and has only had a few bites of food. She drinks a little bit of water here and there. She seems out of it although she'll look up for her name, and seems to enjoy petting, but doesn't purr.
About 2 weeks ago the outside of the house was sprayed for cockroaches. I'm worried about insecticide poisoning. I haven't seen any seizures What can I do to help her? Should I force-feed her? Use a syringe to get her more water? bathe her? Is she likely to recover? when? Anything else I should know or be doing? I can take her back into the vet but I suspect

Our cat ate some insect spray this morning around 11 O’clock it was antstop as we had noticed flying ants behind on of our sofas. Our cat then walked in(she normally likes to do laps of the house)so when she disappeared we then thought she had gone somewhere else it wasn’t until she came out from behind the sofa we realised she had eaten the ants with the stuff on them, she is now very sleepy and is just asleep on my bed she is a bit shaky but I’ve only seen her shake a few times, what should I do ??

I am concerned about long term side effects from pyrethrin toxicity exposure. I applied a 'natural' cat flea control that I got at the $ store as I have had no income for the last 2 months. Peppermint oil, clove oil, lemongrass oil are the active ingredients. I have 2 cats and applied one dose to each. My old cat was fine but our younger one started yowling 1 hour after dose but he normally is vocal to get out at night and I want him in due to predators. After a few hours he was still vocal and scratching the area but I just thought that the smell might be bothering him. The next morning I woke up to find him in a full blown seizure on the floor and rushed him to the ER vets. He felt really warm but vet said his temp was only slightly elevated which was good news. They bathed him and administered methocarbanol a few times. They advised to keep him overnight for monitoring and IV fluids but that would have been $1000 dollars and said that if I thought I could give him a pill that I could take him home once he was stabilized. The vet said she was not the worst case she has seen and put him at a 3-5 in a scale with 10 being the worst. After I got home and was reading the print out they gave me I read that if he were kept he would have gotten intralipids to bind the toxin which was written as a treatment I refused and I have no recollection as being discussed (but it was a stressful situation so I may have missed it though I would have been interested in him receiving this treatment because I discussed activated charcoal at application site or orally for this purpose at discharge which they advised against.) I only tried to administer the methocarbanol 1 time when they first recommended dosing him and was only able to keep 1/2 dose in him but since he never got really bad tremors again. (Slight paw twitches and ear flicks) that day and the day following. Eating and drinking and eliminating well. 2 days after no twitching still eating/drinking eliminating but more sleepy. Today is 3 days later and he still seems more sleepy than pre-application. I am not sure when I should be concerned that he may have permanent effects from this ordeal or if this is just his body taking the time to recoup. I am kicking myself for not recognizing how bothered he was that night and not washing it off him before it got so bad. Also I wish the vet went over written methods of treatment and had me initial refusal or acceptance of each because the intralipid treatment would have been something I would have considered an overnight stay for (if that was the only way he could receive them) but I knew I could monitor him at home and would not be shy about getting pills into him (although I was not as successful as I thought I could be and was very glad that he did not appear to need the medication as much as was anticipated.)

I sprayed some bug spray containing cypermethrin in my kitchen, corners,parts of the floor etc and my cat came to investigate. Since then her pupils have been dilated and she seems active. At the moment she's laying down, but I have never had cats before and just want to make sure she's ok and not put her through undue stress by taking her to a vet office.
She is one year old.

Hi Last Friday I put topical Cheristin on my cat because our other cat had fleas after his vet appointment. This Monday she started shaking her head, sneezing and has watery eyes. Before the flea treatment I was trying to treat her with diatomaceous earth and peppermint flea spray, but it didn't work and she developed dermatitis and was given steroid and antibiotic injections. Yesterday I took her to her regular Vet because of the head shaking and he checked her ears - no inflammation - heart sounded good. She has no other health issues that are diagnosed.

Could this still be toxicity from the Cheristin a week later (the company when I called said never heard of this side effect)

I have washed her neck area with baby shampoo and am wiping her down every day with cat bath wipes.

She is still eating normally - always picky and drinking

Hi, some roaches entered my room last night from a leak in the ceiling so I used a Baygon Cockroach killer aerosol spray to deal with them 'cause they were flying around. I sprayed them accordingly, then under my bed as well, to be sure. I left for a while (I don't remember how long exactly, but I fear it was less than 10 mins), then when I re-entered to grab my wallet, my cat ran in behind me. I caught him by the tail as he went under the bed and brought him out promptly.
In my flustered state however, it didn't occur to me to wash his paws afterwards, so now I'm worried about him. It's been at least 10 hours since he ran into the room but so far he hasn't shown any change in behavior or symptoms other than some face/eye scratching earlier (which was still 10 or so hours after possible exposure). Should I be as worried as I am? What symptoms should I look out for? And, if he was exposed, could he spread exposure to my other cats? At the moment we're unable to bring him to the vet because of a bad storm where I am.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I sprayed a barrier around the outside and inside of the house and my cat was following me around now he's lathargic and stumbleing when he walks around.he also seams to be babying his back right paw.

My yard was just sprayed and my outdoor cat walked in the wet pesticide. I wiped her paws but I’m still worried. No symptoms yet. Should I wash her paws completely? Just watch her?

i have a Cat who is 15 yrs old and always goes outside, recently, he came home weak, and losing chunks of hair, and unable to walk or stand. Before he was very active and had some weight to him, now he is exteremly skinny and eats very little. Is this the effects of poisioning or another disorder? I need some advice cause he is a very well loved kitty.

2days ago I used some industrial insecticide in my kitchen & bathroom. Cats where in my room for aprox 4-5hours I moped floors an whiped down where I sprayed before I let them out, now my 2 year old cat has white stuff around her left eye, it seems redish an she can't open it all the way, is this symptoms of insecticide poisoning?this started yesterday evening.

My cat ate a little bit of pesticide form the grass and he started to vomit and wouldn’t eat for about 1 day I was going to take him to the vet but henbe started to eat and drink normally. He is eating and drinking but he still vomited I don’t know if he is okay or if he got poisoned.
