Watch your pet closely for the next 24 hours. If vomiting, weakness or unusual behaviour appears, call us on +853 6677 6611.
Signs to watch for
- Thirst
- Soft stool
- Vomiting after a large salty amount
What to do
A sheet or two only needs water and monitoring. Call us if a whole multipack was eaten, mainly for the salt and packaging.
Macau note
Seasoned seaweed carries salt and oil. Dried unseasoned seaweed can swell in the stomach if eaten in bulk, and desiccant sachets hide in the packs.
