HN NOTE: According to the Pet Poison Helpline, “Cocaine and crack primarily affect pets’ brains and hearts. Early signs of cocaine poisoning include hyperactivity, dilated pupils, twitches or tremors, seizures, and death. The dose needed to cause poisoning in pets is very small and all exposures of illicit drugs are emergencies and need immediate veterinary evaluation.”
