Emergency Treatment For Animals Using Homeopathic Remedies Course 

This lesson covers common poisons such as from rat poison, snail pellets, drugs, etc

Ingestion of poison can be indicated by yellow or green vomit. However, that can also indicate a struggling liver/gall bladder.

Vomiting after ingesting poison is good as it helps to get rid of it. But then the animal should relax, go to sleep or feel at ease, showing the action was successful.

Rat poison prevents the blood from clotting so the animal bleeds to death. Ipecachuana is the remedy of choice here.

A few doses of the 30c may be all that is needed if the ingestion is recent - ie a few. minutes or up to an hour ago. Longer than that would probably need 200c and more frequent doses.

Bleeding may not be obvious in the early stages, as it will be internal. However, it may become external in the later stages, such as a nose bleed or blood from any orifice.

This is a serious condition and can be fatal.

A cat, who liked to visit a neighbour, come home one day and collapsed. I had no idea what the problem was so gave her a dose of Aconite 200c, followed by a few doses of Rescue Remedy as she didn’t respond quickly enough for my anxiety level!
The neighbour used rat poison as mice get into her caged birds to eat the fallen grain.
I considered this may be the problem if she had eaten a dead mouse so alternated her with Ipecac 200c and Rescue Remedy and she lived to tell the tale.

A cat who liked to wander, but always came home at night, woke me one night. This was unusual for him. He was bleeding from the nose. At first I just thought it was a normal nose bleed so gave him a dose of Phosphorus. But it didn’t stop.
Then I suspected rat poisoning, so gave him a few doses of Ipecac 200c. Then I fell asleep. When I woke in the morning, I had forgotten all about it and let the cats out. He never returned. I suspect it had progressed too far and I should have stayed awake, dosing him more often.

Pet safe snail pellets are no less dangerous than ordinary ones. Most cats will avoid them, but dogs may eat them. 

These pellets can cause death quite quickly. The first signs are salivation beyond normal, followed by twitching, tremors and seizures. They affect the nervous system of the animal.

Nux vomica 200c would be a good remedy to consider, but as this is so serious and rapid, an emergency vet visit may be a good idea, The remedy may have worked by the time you get there! 

Charcoal can help bind the poison. Mixing the charcoal with something they like, such as a little oil may encourage them to eat it.

You can deal with the fall out from the vet's treatment when the emergency has passed.

Weed killer will affect any animal who walks on the ground after treatment. Cats can be especially affected as they will lick their paws. A healthy cat may recover once, but repeated exposure can harm their immune response.

Any medical, veterinary or social drugs need to be kept well away from animals (preferably in secure containers) who may chew on them to find out what they are. Better still, use safe treatments such as homeopathy.

There are many other causes of poisonings from plants to heavy metals. They are too numerous to mention here.

If you know the poison or drug, phoning a local (human or animal) helpline may offer assistance.

Depending on the result of your actions, poison ingestion can present as an emergency as it can be fatal.

If you have animals, it’s much safer to eliminate all chemicals from the house and garden. Use the natural and safe alternatives.
