Hi! I'm looking for commentary from a U.S.-based veterinarian on the risks of poinsettias for cats. Questions include: 1. What immediate steps should pet parents take if they suspect their cat has ingested part of a poinsettia? 2. When should they contact a veterinarian or the Pet Poison Helpline? 3. Does this typically warrant veterinary treatment? (If so, what does it usually consist of?) How can pet parents treat/monitor their pet at home? 4. How can pet parents prevent further exposure to poinsettias? (Especially during the holidays.) *Please note: Only original responses from U.S.-based veterinarians will be considered; I'm unable to interview any spokespeople for competing pet brands or use AI-generated responses from sources.
