VerifiedHello! I am sorry Furry Dennis is having problems. My name is***** I am a licensed veterinarian with Just Answer. Thank you for visiting the site. I hope to be of great help to you. Please give me 10 minutes to consider your pet’s case and respond.
Give 5mg of human over-the-counter Famotidine (Pepcid AC) from human drug stores that may prevent an upset stomach. If your pet starts vomiting or not eating within 12 hours let me know or see a vet. Do you have any questions about what I said?
Also, give activated charcoal if you can find it. Activated charcoal binds the chemical to prevent absorption into the bloodstream. Call your local pet store and ask if they have any activated charcoal products for intoxication. I recommend Toxiban with sorbitol. If there is a Walmart locally, they may have it. Call and ask. Give the labeled dose. If you can't find any products for pets, give activated charcoal tablets for humans. Give 1/4 dose as a human adult.
Here is a video showing how you can give a pill to your cat.

It’s not safe to make cats vomit with hydrogen peroxide.
Thanks again. Let me know if you think of any more questions or need more help with your pet’s case.
