Barbara ate fish oil capsule...

[littlewoollypervert]

On phone to my bf. Vitamins out on kitchen counter ready to take after call. Barbara in corner happily licking her chops and I've just realised I'm one capsule short - the fish oil one. Does anyone know if these are ok for cats? I'm assuming from the name/content they are ok but am a bit worried!

[littlewoollypervert]

Ah per Google she should be ok. Might have a runny bum. Now I know why they both try to get to my supplements when they are out, they smell the fish

[BlackAmericanoNoSugar]

Your cat is named Barbara?

[littlewoollypervert]

Her sister is Margot

They're gorgeous! She'll be ok. Possible trots as oil is rich but she'll be ok. I give my cats a spoon of olive oil each week. The vet recommended it for their joints, hairball prevention and skin. I put a tiny bit on the brush when they're being groomed too

I opened this thread because I too have a cat named Barbara

Well, he’s Bob, but he’s taken on a new identity and is now Barbara...

I’m sure your Barbara will be fine OP.

[BlackAmericanoNoSugar]

Ah, Margot and Barbara. They are clearly living The Good Life.

[littlewoollypervert]

Oh Bob/Barbara is quite regal!

[littlewoollypervert]

BlackAmericanoNoSugar you got it!
I had a lovely fantasy about digging the veg garden while they snoozed on a wall nearby in the sun, but they are house cats due to the building site behind me, and Barbara is afraid of the Outside...

[RandomMess]

Fish oil is good for them

Hope Barbara hasn't given herself the runs!

[littlewoollypervert]

I've topped up the litter trays...

[Gingerkittykat]

She will be fine, I used to give my cats fish oil on the advice of a vet nurse.

I say used to because one would clean himself immediately after having it and smelled fishy!

[RandomMess]

I'm impressed with Barbara's nose skills, one of mine doesn't even move to investigate fish pie being made. or salmon fillets...

Only thing he notices is tinned tuna!

[RandomMess]

How is Barbara today?

[littlewoollypervert]

@Randomess no issues at all, panic over! She's asleep on the bed beside me, the fluffiest girl ever
