Symptoms
Wobbliness/loss of coordination, disorientation, dribbling urine, extreme lethargy, dilated pupils, vomiting, low heart rate. Onset within 30 minutes to a few hours.
What To Do
Contact a vet, most cases are supportive care and cats recover, but severity depends on dose and product type (edible vs. plant material).
