As some of you know, my Pinot eats bugs, goes after shrews, has eaten wasps, thinks about taking down white tailed deer, brings her Mom chipmunks...you get the picture. She tries to eat anything that moves. We try to get these things from her before anything is injested, but she's very quick. This may have caused a problem.
Friday evening on the deck. We go out with her on nice evenings, take a glass of wine; she is not allowed to leave the deck. Where we live, as you also may know, there is an abundance of wildlife of all sizes. At this time of year, there are toads called "spring peepers" that make a lovely song when they all call out. Some frequent the deck. You may know where this is going. Pinot tried to eat one of the toads. It didn't stay in her mouth; she spat it out, but her eyes got very watery, she drooled a bit, otherwise seemed OK. We cleaned her up and took her inside.
Several of her meals since then have been thrown up. She seems otherwise normal. I'm a bit concerned. Does anyone have experience with a kitty attempting to eat a toad?
