- Monitor your cat closely for any unusual behavior.
- Look out for symptoms like drooling or skin reactions.
- Excess application could lead to more serious issues.
Cats can be sensitive to medications meant for them, and even a small overdose could result in adverse effects. Watch for symptoms like excessive drooling, vomiting, difficulty breathing, or skin irritations. In severe cases, neurological signs such as tremors or seizures can occur. It's important to act quickly if you notice any of these signs.
