๐ Nori ๐
This beautiful girl recently visited our team after her owners noticed she had been chewing on some lily leaves from a bouquet they had received.
Thankfully, Nori's owners acted quickly and brought her straight in for assessment and treatment. Their prompt action made all the difference.
Nori received supportive care, including IV fluid therapy and repeat blood tests to closely monitor her kidney function. As lilies are extremely toxic to cats and can cause severe kidney damage, early veterinary intervention is essential.
We're very happy to report that Nori responded wonderfully to treatment and has continued to do well at home with her loving family. โค๏ธ
โ ๏ธ Did you know? Lilies are one of the most dangerous plants for cats. โ ๏ธ
Even a small amount of exposure can be life-threatening. Cats can become poisoned by:
๐ธ Chewing the leaves, petals, or stems
๐ธ Drinking water from a vase containing lilies
๐ธ Grooming pollen from their fur
Signs of lily toxicity can include vomiting, lethargy, loss of appetite, increased thirst, and, in severe cases, kidney failure.
If you suspect your cat has come into contact with a lily, don't wait for symptoms to develop. Contact your veterinarian immediately, as early treatment offers the best chance of a positive outcome.
A big well done to Nori's owners for recognising the risk and acting so quickly. We couldn't be happier to see this sweet girl back where she belongs, safe at home. ๐ฑโค๏ธ
