Abstract
Background: Cats and dogs presenting with potential poisoning is common in companion animal practice. However, treatment is not always necessary and so individual case assessment is essential to provide appropriate management, rather than having blanket protocols for all poisoning cases.
Aim of the article: This article gives guidance on performing a risk assessment of poisoning cases and discusses some of the common pitfalls in management and the common toxicants involved.
