Friends who have cats, do you know?Some seemingly harmless vanilla can actually be fatal to cats. Today, we are going to reveal to you three dangerous vanillas, be sure to pay attention to them!
1. Lavender: beautiful appearance, vicious heart.
Lavender is often loved for its soothing fragrance and tranquil color. However, lavender is a dangerous poison for cats.
Some ingredients in lavender, such as "naphthol", "naphthol acetate", etc., can cause serious damage to the liver and kidneys of cats. If a cat eats lavender by mistake or is exposed to lavender for a long time, it may experience symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, cramps, abnormal behavior, and even death in severe cases.
Therefore, if lavender is planted in the home, it must be avoided from the cat's contact. At the same time, you should also pay attention to some essential oils made from lavender, because the ingredients in these essential oils are more easily absorbed by cats, which can cause poisoning.
2. Tea tree: the dual threat of antibacterial and poisoning.
Tea tree is widely used in skin care products for its antibacterial effects, but at the same time, it is also a big killer for cats.
The "terbinine-4-ol" component in tea tree has great damage to the liver and nerves of cats. If the cat accidentally licks an item stained with tea tree ingredients, or inhales the fragrance of tea tree, it is likely to have vomiting, dizziness, dehydration, hypothermia, movement disorders and other poisoning symptoms in a short period of time.
Essential oils, cosmetics, deodorant sprays and other daily products often contain tea tree ingredients, so friends with cats must pay attention and try to avoid using products containing tea tree ingredients.
3. Sage: a mixture of delicacy and danger.
Sage is often used in cooking to remove the fishy smell of meat, but it also has the effect of promoting digestion and calming the mind. However, for cats, sage is a dangerous poison.
Sage contains a polyphenol called "tannin", which can cause serious damage to the stomach and kidneys of cats when ingested in large amounts. Essential oils with high concentrations of sage are more dangerous, and once licked or inhaled, they are likely to cause neurological symptoms such as drooling and shaking.
If a friend with a cat is using sage or a product that contains sage, stop using it immediately and keep items containing sage out of the reach of cats.
