I *think* I remember someone posted this awhile back but I can't remember who or where; when I took Sophie to the veter--uhh...MANICURIST yesterday (lol can't say the V-word lol) they had magnets with the Animal Posion Hotline Number. Anyways, thought the number might be worth repeating.

Good idea! Please note though that most of these animal poison control hotlines cost $40 per call. It's probably more worthwhile calling your own vet. But if it's after hours or a holiday or something, then it's definatly worth the 40 bucks!

Well, it's sort of like you call up and before they let you talk to anyone you have to give them your credit card # - at least that's how it was when I called one other one once. So, the original call is free, but if you really want to get an answer you have to pay.
