Panic!

My kitten Lucifer ate a BUTTERFLY today morning!!!
I'm used to her harassing every bug she meets, but this was kinda worrying since I have a butterfly phobia. It was brown and rather large, could it be poisonous?
She was meowing strangely, but she's a kitten so she meows at everything.
I'm probably just panicking, but can my cat get sick from eating a butterfly??

I have no idea whether or not butterflies are poisonous. Stay on the safe side, call your vet and ask.

I called my vet and he said not to worry, but i'm taking her in the evening just incase.

My Cats when I was a Young Man caught,and ate Butterflies all the time,and usually lost them,as quickly as Your Huntress did.
I dont think,that there anything to worry about.
Toads,yes as they have poison on them,but I think that Butterflies,are not toxic.

Soon,The Cats Patio,will be open for Business!
