Thanks for your question! It's great that you're thinking about your cats' health. When it comes to vitamin C syrup, it's important to be cautious. Cats, unlike humans and some other animals, actually produce their own vitamin C in their liver, so they don't typically need extra supplementation. Additionally, vitamin C in high amounts can cause problems like gastrointestinal upset or, in rare instances, issues with their urinary tract.
Here’s what you can watch for: If your cats have already ingested some of the syrup, keep an eye out for any signs of vomiting, diarrhea, or changes in their behavior, such as lethargy or loss of appetite. These could indicate that their tummies are upset or that something more serious is going on.
At home, make sure the syrup is kept out of reach so they can't access it again. Also, ensure they have plenty of fresh water and their usual diet to keep them happy and healthy.
If you notice any worrying symptoms or if you’re unsure about your cats' health, it's best to consult with a vet sooner rather than later. I recommend setting up a video consult with Dial A Vet so a professional can give you tailored advice based on your cats' specific needs.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
