Has anyone else's cat had an adverse reaction to Vaseline?
Kiki vomited and the vomit had a small amount of what looked like
blood in it today, after the Vaseline I gave her yesterday.
When I got the new jar of Vaseline home, I cleaned the package
thoroughly before opening it. After inspecting the open container,
before dipping my finger into it, I cleaned my finger.
I suspect it was the Vaseline out of more than just coincidence,
yesterday she was enthusiastic about it and today she is
uninterested.
I realize that if it was the Vaseline, the Vaseline might have
aggravated a pre-existing condition (something else might be wrong).
I'm not blaming anyone else, I did some research about the Vaseline
first, and my cat is 100% my responsibility. I'm not even asking for
comment or advice. I'm just documenting this because (in my opinion)
it might help someone else down the road. I will post an update
later.
