Their liver lacks <\/span><b>certain enzymes necessary to metabolize<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> compounds such as pyrethroids, a family of insecticides that permethrin belongs to. Specifically, they lack <\/span><b>glucuronyl transferase<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, an enzyme essential for breaking down and filtering many chemicals. This means that cats <\/span><b>cannot eliminate permethrin efficiently<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, allowing it to accumulate in their system and cause severe neurological damage.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Permethrin\u2019s active mechanism<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Permethrin acts in insects by blocking <\/span><b>nerve transmission<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, keeping the sodium channels of neurons open and causing paralysis and death in parasites such as fleas and ticks. In mammals, these effects are minimized by a rapid metabolism that degrades the substance. However, in cats, <\/span><b>permethrin is not effectively broken down<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, resulting in overstimulation of the nervous system that can lead to tremors, convulsions and, in severe cases, multi-organ failure.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How does the poisoning occur?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cats can be poisoned by permethrin in several ways:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Direct application: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">when a guardian mistakenly applies a dog dropper to his cat.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Contact with a treated dog: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">if a cat lives with a dog that has recently been treated with a permethrin-containing dropper and licks or rubs against it.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Environmental exposure:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> if a cat steps on a contaminated surface and then grooms itself, ingesting the substance.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-17155 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/balmesvet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/gato-y-perro-naranja.jpg\" alt=\"pipetas antiparasitarias\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/balmesvet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/gato-y-perro-naranja.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/balmesvet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/gato-y-perro-naranja-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/balmesvet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/gato-y-perro-naranja-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is important to note that <\/span><b>it does not take a high dose for a cat to become intoxicated<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
