My cat ate pork and ramen with dish soap. What symptoms to watch for?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 8 years and 7 months old | 7 lbs

My cat ate some Pork pieces and Ramen noodles that where in the sink after dishes where washed out in the sink with Ultra AJax Bleach Alternative Dish soap? The label doesnt have a number I can call for Poison control or anything, and it says only to avoid contact with eyes Nothing about Ingesting it. I don't know how much soap would've been on them and they where little pieces of Pork. The kind of Dish soap is in the photo. Im not 100% sure she got any soap, but if she did whats the signs?

I would think that Mirz would have to ingest a large amount of concentrated soap to show any signs and even then I wouldn’t expect more than vomiting or diarrhea. Pork is not toxic but presumably could cause stomach upset as well. You should watch for vomiting or diarrhea but I’m guessing Mirz will be fine.
