Particularly Dangerous and Harmful for Dogs and Cats
Grapes for Dogs
Grapes are extremely dangerous for dogs and can cause acute kidney failure. Even a small amount of grapes or raisins can be toxic and lead to serious health problems. Symptoms of grape poisoning may include vomiting, diarrhea, severe lethargy, loss of appetite, and abdominal pain. Poisoning can develop quickly, and if help is not provided in time, it can lead to kidney failure and even death.
If you suspect that your dog has eaten grapes or raisins, contact a veterinarian immediately. The faster help is provided, the better the chances of avoiding severe consequences. A veterinarian may prescribe treatment to remove toxins and carry out necessary procedures to protect the dog's kidneys and overall health.
Grapes for Cats
Grapes are also dangerous for cats, although poisoning cases are less common than in dogs. Grapes and raisins can cause severe kidney issues and lead to kidney failure. Symptoms of poisoning in cats include lethargy, vomiting, loss of appetite, and abdominal pain. Even a small amount of grapes can be extremely harmful to a cat's health.
If your cat has eaten grapes or raisins, contact a veterinarian right away. Prompt treatment can help prevent the development of kidney failure and other complications. A veterinarian may provide supportive therapy and medication to remove toxins from the cat's body.
