Does anyone know if styptic powder can be harmful if ingested in small

FDA report that says no toxicity in Humans over 75 years but unable to
find anything on Google to suggest it's in any way toxic to cats-
imagine since the scenario you just described is very common (done it
myself and watched kitty lick the blood and powder off- no ill effects
observed) that if it was a problem it would be there

Thanks Lesley, I didn't find anything about styptic powder being toxic to
cats but I called my pharmacist to double check and she said it contains all
inert materials so should cause no harm.
