Chemicals can be absorbed through a cat's paws. Floor waxes and cleaning solutions pose a
particular danger.
Coins can choke a cat and should never be left around. Pennies minted after 1982 pose an added danger as they contain zinc which is toxic. Check your wastepaper baskets for things like pieces of foil, medicine bottle stickers, anything and everything. Also very dangerous: anything with STRING on it. Plus, sap from Christmas trees (also tinsel can lodge in intestinal track, so get rid of it).
