About an hour ago my cat ate a little bit of playdoh. So far she seems fine but I was wondering if it might be toxic for her ? It was store bought playdoh.

Hello!  I don't know who made your play-doh, or how much your cat ate (maximum amount possible), or even how big they are (rough weight, or even small / medium / large cat), which makes a difference. According to the Pet Poison Helpline, some types of play-doh may contain surprisingly large amounts of salt, which can be toxic to cats and their kidneys in particular.  Therefore we would recommend speaking to them or your vets as soon as possible after consumption.  Toxicity is generally an urgent matter, so if you ever have concerns about something that an animal ate, we reccommend seeking advice directly as soon as possible.
