I assume you mean liquid Clorox bleach. If it was only a small amount that was soaked into the sock and if Chandler is acting fine, you are probably ok as it’s unlikely he ingested much if any. When pets ingest bleach, it causes chemical burns in the mouth and upper GI tract. Checks his lips, mouth and tongue (as best you can) for any redness or peeling/bleeding, monitor him for not eating well or vomiting. If you see anything, take him to the vet right away. You can also give him a couple tablespoons of milk as this will help to neutralize any bleach he may have ingested - be advised it could also cause soft stool. When in doubt, have him seen. I hope though everything is fine and that you found this helpful. Thank you for using Boop by Petco.

Ideally, Pepe should be seen by your veterinarian or at the nearest veterinary ER. In addition to the potentially toxic chemicals in the wipe, it may pose a risk of obstruction. Your veterinarian can induce vomiting via injection to get the wipe up and out. This is most successful when done within 2 hours of ingestion. Any longer and the wipe could move out of the stomach. If it blocks, this would be a surgical issue. Pepe may need medication to calm an upset stomach afterwards. A bland diet may also be recommended for a few days.

Hello, and thank you for using Boop by Petco. Yes, Clorox is a potent cleaning chemical and, like most cleaners, can be irritating to eyes, skin, and lungs - for both you and your iguana. For this reason, all disinfected surfaces cleaned with bleach (or any other cleaner) should be thoroughly rinsed and allowed to completely dry before coming in contact with Marcela. Hope this helps!

The problem with using clorox wipes is that you still will have to rinse the area as clorox residue can hurt your animal. You can put tape along the cracks for the time being and wipe the area with a wet cloth. I suppose you will have to save up for a new cage bottom or find a plastic bottom that will fit into the tray.

You would need to check with ASPCA poison control (https://www.aspca.org/pet-care/animal-poison-control) to be safe, but I do not believe that the chlorox wipes contain bleach. However, they do contain some ingredients that can be irritating to the mouth. However, those ingredients normally take a while to show up as a problem. My suspicion would be that there was something in the wipe that tasted bad or was bitter which caused the foaming and that was irritating enough to cause the vomiting. If Tofu has continued to vomit, is lethargic, or does not eat, I would certainly have your veterinarian evaluate him. Good luck! I hope Tofu is fine and that was helpful. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.
