Lastly I have dosed myself pretty good a couple of times by accident and experienced no noticeable effects.. I hope I don't get kidney disease later in life but it is a common human foible to mix and match such things: for example if a lifetime of low level exposure will cause cancer then the stuff is bad and a single acute exposure must logically have horrible consequences like vomiting blood exorcist-style. This does not in fact logically follow. All the evidence suggesting a correlation between round-up exposure and kidney disease say nothing about symptoms of short term exposure if there even are any, and none of the literature that I am aware of call out those symptoms. I therefor suspect that the symptoms were from something else.

I general, I am Roundup supporter, but...
If the cat was sprayed, it would have have licked itself repeatedly. I assume you never licked your skin after spraying yourself? I have also sprayed myself with Roundup, many times, but I diddn't lick myself. I washed it off with a lot of water. A cat, being much smaller (15x-20x smaller?) would need much less of a dose to have an ill effect.
