improbably the most frequent jttagnosis made by a pet own-ar-is that his dog or cat has Seen poisoned. In some cases lie is even certain that the poi- aoning was deliberate. vilFortunately for the pet and his owner, poisonings in animals rarely occur, and such a diagnosis by an owner is more Often wrong than right vMany infectious diseases of animals are acute with a very sudden onset. The signs are often dramatic and since the fiwner has not observed a gradual onset, it seems likely to him that his pet has been poisoned. especially pui are more likely to accid ly ingest toxic materials then fire cats.

The fastideous nature of the cat makes him less likely to consume most of the plore common poisons. -'The number of materials Snow to cause poisoning in animals is almost limitless. They include insecticides, her-fca rides, heavy metals, roden-tirides, ethylene glycol antifreeze, poisonous snake bites, poisonous plants, accidental Ingestion of drugs (intended for human use), and so on. There is no one sign of poisoning. Toxic substances may affect almost any system of the body.

Thallium (a rodenti-cide) may cause hair loss. Most insecticides affect the nervous system causing tremors and seizures. Certain rat poisons cause internal bleeding. The stomach and intestinal tract are also affected by many poisons. One of the most frequent cause of poisonings in dogs seen in this part of the country is that caused by the acd-dental ingestion of metalde-hyde, the active ingredient in most snail and slug baits.

Me-taldehyde is absorbed quickly from the gastro-intestinal tract The initial effect of the poison may be irritation of the stomach causing vomiting. As the material is absorbed a lack of coordination is noted which proceeds to more severe muscle tremors. Quick treatment is necessary in order to eliminate the toxic material from the stomach and counteract the effects of the poison. Vomiting can be induced at home by many methods including the administration of one or two teaspoons of hydrogen peroxide. In some cases, the animal may have to be anesthetized in order to stop the tremors while tha remaining poison is eliminated.
