Ember's was poisoned!

We're 99.9% sure that what Emberfae has 'toad/Bufo poisoning' from a "Midwest" bufo. We've managed to get a few eye-droppers of water into him, but he won't drink for us. It's possible, as my DD said, that he's drinking water when we're not looking, but he IS drinking. Just a little while ago he did walk to and urinate in a litter box. His "walk" was slow, but steady. Anyway, here's a excerpt of what we found:

Treatment

A diagnosis of toad poisoning is usually based on seeing a dog or cat mouthing a toad, or seeing a toad or toad pieces in the dog or cat's vomit if symptoms have already occurred. If an animal is seen mouthing or eating a toad, first aid includes quickly rinsing out the mouth with large amounts of water. As vomiting usually occurs as a result of toad poisoning, making a dog vomit is usually of no value, especially once symptoms are seen. If vomiting becomes persistent, a veterinarian should be consulted.

So, it looks as though if (when!) he can get over his "tripping" or whatever it's done to him, he'll be fine in a little time. YAY!
