Several years ago our dalmation got hold of a catnip 'tail'. She chewed it. Her mouth muscles/skin would not close for almost a week. She drooled profusely and ended up raw over about 1/3 of her body due to the drool. She never seemed 'drunk' and we had no clue it was the catnip until after several hundred in vet bills, then we realized the 'tail' was missing. Found it in her bedding.
The vet said this was a typical reaction. |
