Dog Ate Cat Food

My dog ate cat food and is sick now. what am I doing?

My ten week lab ate a lot of cat food and now it is sick, has diarrhea and does not eat dog food. The little I gave her to eat is gone. What can I do.

I won't feed her for 24 hours, it sounds cruel, but her stomach needs to be calmed before eating. Give her plenty of water to drink, especially if she has diarrhea and fever! Dogs can become dehydrated very quickly, especially puppies! If after 24 hours he has stopped eating and has diarrhea, you can give him rice and chicken or seasonal hamburger. If she does not feel better after 48 hours and does not work on her own, I call a doctor. I now!

Cat food should not make them so sick. It contains the same ingredients as other foods available in the market. ** This means quantity of grains, vegetables etc. Not enough, many dogs eat cat food all the time, and some people, like guide dogs, feed their foster kittens. It won't make you sick !! However, excessive amounts of processed food will not make animals (even humans) sick over time. Dogs and cats are carnivores and should be fed basically the same food.

My dog eats cat food, but slowly. It is very hot and the laboratory is not used to it.

Cat food does not contain ingredients like dog food! Cat food is rich in protein, certain nutrients and eating too much at one time can cause pancreatitis.

Cat food is not prepared for dogs but for CATS! Feeding a cat can lead to problems such as liver and kidney damage due to malnutrition and high protein intake. My cousin's dog underwent $ 400 surgery to remove the bladder a few years ago. Cat food!
