My kitten ate melted butter. What happens and what should I do?

Question

My four-month-old kitten ate a whole lot of melted butter what will happen she goes to the vet tomorrow

Destini R. Holloway, DVM · Accepted Answer

Most likely she will have several bouts of diarrhea and perhaps some vomiting. The butter will create a sort of slip-n-slide and cause loss of fluid so it is important to give her small amounts of Pedialyte (if diarrhea or vomiting do occur) to prevent dehydration. Also a bland diet of tuna and rice can be given to help her stomach settle. She should slowly improve over the next few days as the butter exits her system.
