This is the most common thing I get. If it truly was a very small amount of gel, I honestly wouldn't worry too much about it. Still, I can't vouch for each situation personally and I'm not a doctor, so if you're still worried, I would go to someone who is a real doctor. You could always try calling Poison Control, too.

It's difficult to say for sure, but usually within a couple of days. The important thing is to monitor your pet closely for signs of lack of energy, loss of appetite, and vomiting. If your pet shows any of these signs, please consult your veterinarian. On March 23, 2007, New York State laboratories reported finding a form of rat poison, aminopterin, in some pet foods. FDA and Cornell University have not been able to confirm the presence of aminopterin in samples they have tested.

This depends. If you just want a little packet to have for novelty, look in some of the things you buy like shoe boxes, leather coat pockets, and purses. If you want a large amount that you'd like to use for something, you can order it online here, or search on Google for other vendors.

Before asking for help, try completely uninstalling Decal and all of your plugins, then installing things back one at a time, checking them in AC as you go. This will at least help pinpoint the problem. If you're comfortable with regedit, delete HKLM/Software/Decal/.

If you pet shows signs of illness (such as loss of appetite, lethargy and vomiting), you should consult with your veterinarian immediately. "The American College of Internal Medicine (ACVIM) has recommended that pets (dogs and cats) that ingested pet food that was on the recall list, whether showing signs of illness (lethargy, vomiting, diarrhea, anorexia, etc.

Most of our animals are NOT good for your pets as they may be a choking hazard from the eyes and noses and the chemical treatment used in the glues. We strongly suggest keeping them up and out of the way of all domestic animals as the fur is something they will certainly want to either lick clean or eat as part of their nature. If the fur is swallowed there is very little danger as most will be excreted naturally.

You will definitely need to see a vet if your pet ingested a common household poison. Some of the frequently ingested household poisons that animals seem to find palatable are slug bait, antifreeze and rat poison. Other common household poisons are over the counter pain medications or supplements, cleaning agents, prescriptions, fertilizers and insecticides. Some plants are also toxic when consumed.

Because H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus has not yet been detected in the United States, it is unlikely that the bird would pose a risk of H5N1 HPAI infection to your cat, and no special precautions unique to avian influenza (AI) prevention and control are warranted. If the virus is found in the United States, and if it is found to infect wild birds upon which cats are likely to prey, you should contact your veterinarian for assistance.

Most damage to stored valuables and supplies is caused by humidity trapped within the enclosed storage unit itself. Humidity in the space turns into condensation which can often cause irreparable damage. Our silica gel products will help to eliminate rust, corrosion, oxidation and tarnish on tools, coin collections, silverware, jewelry, musical instruments and more. In addition, silica gel can protect seasonal storage, collectibles, clothing, leather and more from mildew, fungus, mold and odor.

Silica gel is the most common type of desiccant in use today. It is a porous sand and can absorb moisture in the air, often up to 40 % of it?s weight. However, silica gel absorbs moisture best in small, confined spaces and often end up getting saturated in a very short time span, making them unsuitable for container shipments. Beware that some silica gel - the blue contains cobolt - is toxic, and can not be disposed of any which way.

Indicating silica gel is a silica gel bead or granule that has been washed with a concentration of cobalt chloride ( a heavy metal salt). The cobalt chloride is a deep blue color when it is dry and turns from blue to purple to pink as it becomes saturated with moisture. Typically, the color changes as the desiccant goes past 8% moisture levels (by weight) and indicates it is time to replace the desiccant.

As bad of an influence as I know I'm about to be... yes, I have. Although I explained that it probably will not hurt you, as it did not hurt me, I would not reccomend it. (For the record, I ate about 3 kernels, so I didn't figure I was in much danger)

Update on this question. I had it up here for a while that silica gel was a naturally occuring substance. I apologize, because this was incorrect. Due to two emails (from Jonathan and Kevin) I now know that it was patented by Dr. Walter A Patrick of Johns Hopkins University. I also was able to piece together the following facts.

No. The first time I got this question, I didn't really know what to do. I couldn't find the information on the web, but it was a matter of pride for me to be able to give an answer to the person who had emailed me with it. So... I tried it. I pulled out an old packet from my collection, ripped it open, grabbed a lighter and attempted to light it on fire. Despite my best efforts, it did not work. Silica Gel is not flammable.

All the ingredients contained in Badger products are natural and in most cases if consumed by a pet will not be harmful. It never hurts to check with your vet since different animals have different sensitivities to essential oils.

You are wise to recognize that chocolate is toxic to dogs. Anytime you see your animal eat something that is potentially toxic, it is best to induce vomiting immediately by administering syrup of ipecac or hydrogen peroxide. Call your vet for correct amounts and further instructions. You may want to search your house for items which might be potentially toxic to your dog and either remove them or store them safely away.

If ingested, make sure the pieces pass in the pet's bowel movement. If nothing passes within 24-48 hours or the animal seems uncomfortable, contact your vet and let them know of the incident.
