I left some carnations and roses on the table to throw out and my cat got into them. He ate some and then began to throw up. He threw up a bunch of times at the end just white foamy stuff like spit. He seems fine now - but should I be worried and do I need to take him to the emergency vet??

Roses won't hurt him. Carnations are probably why he vomitted. Carnations can also cause diarhea in cats.

Watch your cat carefully for the next couple of hours... if the cat seems fine, most likely the cat's okay. My cats get into everything and usually if it doesn't sgree with them they throw it up and they are fine! But if the cat seems disoriented and a bit off call the emergency vet and ask about whether you should be concerned of the toxicity of the roses and carnations. BTW my cats LOVE baby's breath and they just get an upset tummy when they eat it.

He'll be fine. It sounds like the flowers just gave him an upset stomach. Keep an eye on him and maybe even call the emergency clinic to see what they say. I always feel better when I talk directly to a professional vet if I'm unsure if I should be concerned about something medical with one of my pets.

Check this out. This is a list of plants poisonous to cats. I think you will be ok. If he doesn't drink or eat or use the litterbox or starts acting weird, call the vet. Make sure he has plenty of fresh water.

He's probably fine now, but you had a good reason to be worried. Take him for a check-up just in case.

usually cats won't eat anything poisonous. If he got sick and threw up he obviously got rid of the bad stuff. If he eats, drinks and does his business, he will be fine.

He puked it all up. Its over. They're just flowers.
I had a dog once that ate, and pooped out an entire shop rag. She was fine.
