❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Is this toxicity checker accurate?
Our database is compiled from veterinary sources including the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center and Pet Poison Helpline. However, it's for informational purposes only. If you suspect your pet has ingested something toxic, contact your veterinarian, emergency animal hospital, or Pet Poison Helpline (1-855-764-7661) immediately.
What are the most common pet toxins?
The top pet toxins include chocolate, xylitol (artificial sweetener), grapes and raisins, onions and garlic, macadamia nuts, and certain plants like lilies and sago palm. Many household items like medications, cleaning products, and antifreeze are also dangerous. When in doubt, check our database or call your vet.
What should I do if my pet ate something toxic?
Stay calm and act quickly. Remove your pet from the substance. Call your veterinarian or the Pet Poison Helpline (1-855-764-7661). Do NOT induce vomiting unless instructed by a professional — some substances cause more damage on the way back up. Bring the packaging or a sample of the substance to the vet if possible.
Are some foods safe for dogs but toxic for cats?
Yes — toxicity varies by species. For example, onions and garlic affect both dogs and cats, but cats are more sensitive. Grapes and raisins are highly toxic to dogs but the effect on cats is less documented. Some substances like tea tree oil are dangerous for both but at different thresholds. Always check for your specific pet type. Shop pet-safe treats →
