Aflatoxin
Aflatoxin is an ingredient contained in contaminated grain, which in turn is poisonous to our cats. It is recommended to keep all of your cats away from any contaminated grain designed to poison other animals when it is laid down or stored. Cover the poison over to stop larger animals accessing it. Even if you are advised that the poison is not palatable to cats, beware, our cats have very strange tastes and will consume the most unpalatable of substances. Likewise keep your cat away from any dead or dying rodents as they also may be inadvertently poisoned.
Clinical Signs
Not eating, refusing food, listlessness, dullness, weight loss, swollen abdomen, jaundice (yellow tinted mucous members, look at the white area of the eye)
