Abstract

An in-depth investigation of a small animal poisoning case resembles a thorough version of the traditional farm call that is provided by large animal clinicians. Goals of such investigations are to diagnose cases, identify responsible toxicants and their sources, and to make recommendations regarding treatment and prevention of further occurrences. The detailed history, interviews, site visit, record keeping, and analysis of findings are discussed.
