We recently poured a cement ramp to our downstairs. The next day lots of kitty paw prints were in it, some going down an inch or more. I'm worried that the kitty got a lot of wet cement on her paws and how it might affect her health to lick it off. Does anyone know?

When cats have abnormal blood counts and that include anemia, many of them will resort to licking concrete and cement. I am not sure what type of toxins (if any) would be involved with wet cement, I would be more concerned with the damage the cement is doing to the paws of the kitties that tracked on it. Without finding those cats, you probably will never know.
