Cats may swallow poison in two ways. For example, if a cat's fur is polluted by chemicals, it will lick its body clean. Secondly, the way cats hunt means that cats may unknowingly eat the poison used to kill pests by mistake. Don't try to diagnose the types of poisons according to the consequences caused by poisons, because many different kinds of poisons may produce the same symptoms.

Go to the veterinary clinic. If you suspect a chemical poisoning, take a chemical sample with you.
