What Happens If a Cat Eats Random Things?

Expert Answer

Random eating usually harms gut health. Dirty food causes bacterial or parasitic infection with vomiting, diarrhea and lethargy; indigestible items like plastic or bones block the intestines with gagging and constipation.

It may also eat toxic plants, drugs or chemicals, causing fatal poisoning.
