Depending on laws where you live, you may need to find a wildlife rehabilitator or a vet who's qualified as one to treat the animal in question. <br /><br />As it was explained to me by a rehabber after I asked what it was that was so harmful, since cats (and dogs, I'd imagine) eat so many odd things, their mouths are full of bacteria.
