I just picked my cat up from the vet because she had an emergency operation this week to remove items from her stomach. I knew she had PICA, and so there are no string like objects lying around my house.... Yard, floss, ribbon, etc. Then 4 days ago, she threw up steel wool. She had dug it out of the wall from under my sink around the plumbing fixtures. Who would have thought she would eat something like that?During the operation they found more steel wool, some hair bands she must have stolen off my counter, and strips of plastic. It was a lot and any piece of it could have killed her.
My question is does anyone have an idea of a way to help a cat with this issue besides medication? And if you are using medication, does it work and does hurt your cat's quality of life? Any help would be appreciated!
