The reason why the cat died after eating a piece of plastic may be because it did not go to the hospital for treatment in time, which caused the plastic to block the intestines and cause the cat's death. For cats, plastic is not cat food, and cats’ intestines and stomach cannot digest plastic. Therefore, if a cat eats plastic and is not stopped in time, it is very likely that the plastic will block the cat’s intestines.

Measures to prevent cats from eating plastic and causing death:

1. First, do not place plastic bags and other items in conspicuous places where cats can access them to prevent cats from scratching them. Take and eat.

2. Pay attention to feeding the cat regularly, and do not let the cat be too hungry and chew plastic bags indiscriminately.

3. If I find that the cat is eating a plastic bag, I need to stop it in time and give the cat some water to help the cat clear its intestines and excrete the plastic bag.

4. If the cat eats the plastic bag without the owner’s knowledge, and you don’t know how much the cat has eaten, you need to feed the cat some soapy water to help induce vomiting.

5. If the cat has serious adverse reactions, it is recommended that the cat owner take the cat to the pet hospital for examination immediately. Do not take it lightly to avoid delaying the best rescue opportunity.
