This morning I found one of my amoxicillin tablets chewed up on the floor and I think my cat swallowed it. I don't know if it's dangerous for him or if I need to take him to the vet right away. How long should I wait before I see symptoms?
Take him to the vet as soon as possible, don't wait. Amoxicillin is usually not toxic to cats, but it depends on the dose and your cat's weight - a whole tablet could be too much, or it might be fine, and only the vet can tell you for sure. If you wait to see symptoms, you risk something bad happening in the meantime, so it's better to act right away and bring the medicine packaging with you so the vet knows exactly how much he ingested.
