Cats will react within 30 minutes of eating foreign objects. Because cats’ intestinal tracts are relatively short, they will defecate about 30 minutes after eating, so they will react in about 30 minutes after accidentally ingesting foreign bodies. Cats may cause intestinal obstruction after accidentally ingesting foreign bodies. This can lead to symptoms such as vomiting, listlessness, and restlessness in cats.

Tip:

If the foreign object that the cat accidentally eats is relatively sharp, it may scratch the intestines and stomach, causing the cat to vomit blood, blood in the stool, or even perforation. Therefore, when an owner discovers that his cat has ingested a foreign object, he must take immediate measures. It is best to send the cat directly to a pet hospital for examination and treatment to prevent the cat's illness from getting worse.
