Yes, that much radiation is dangerous. But short exposure's not gonna really hurt you. It's long-term exposure you have to worry about unless radiation counts are extremely high, and that doesn't count as extreme.
to be fair that card is really cautious as those levels are no where near dangerous. for example the 13 microseiverts per hour exposure would take an entire year to increase your risk of getting cancer. the cat had a peak of 21 times that which is actually kinda high that you probably wouldn't want the cat laying on your chest when you sleep at night as its the same as getting one chest x ray every hour and a half its laying on you. still wouldn't actually hurt you though.
@@kevinforget549I think the card is meant for environmental radiation. If you just walk around somewhere in public space and get that level of radiation out of the blue you should absolutely give a call to the authorities
No but really, if you decide to bring your cat home from the vet before about 20 days after the treatment, there are very strict waste disposal rules you have to follow. If that litter goes to the wrong place, you could really mess things up at the dump.
@skittykay yep, we have radiation detectors for all the trucks coming through, they're little PVC pipes fitted with some sensor, had them go off before and rejected many 76,000lb loads for it. Once they leave its their issue, but it's "supposed" to go to a different facility, there's a hole in the side if a mounting somewhere near the eastern United States it gets taken to and dumped down a hole in the mountain lol
@straightpipediesel They subject those who aren't working out to be put down by felines? Oh, wow! Oh, well. Not every country can have a perfectly flawless healthcare system as Americans do.
I did some math. You'd have to cuddle your cat for 7,211 hours to die of radioactive poisoning. Edit: Ok, someone asked how I did the math, so I redid it just to confirm, and, unsurprisingly, I made a mistake. Explanation: I counted the time to die of radioactive poisoning, not from radiation induced causes. The 100% unsurvivable dose of radiation is 3 Sv(Sieverts). On the card at the start of the video, we can see that 1000 Cpm is 6.5 uSv(microsieverts). Author says in the description that his readings were about 64,000 Cpm || 6.5 x 64 = 416 uSv/h || 3Sv = 3,000,000 uSv || 3,000,000 / 416 = 7,211 hours of exposure.
@@amishgoatmilker No, the cat is genuinely radioactive. The video description explains it a bit but basically, your thyroid is a gland in your body (and this cat's body) that produces hormones that regulate all sorts of functions. Your thyroid is also pretty much the only organ in your body that absorbs and stores iodine. If your thyroid (or this cat's thyroid) is overproducing hormones, you can treat it by giving them a radioactive form of iodine that is rapidly absorbed by the thyroid and neutralizes and kills some of the cells in a pretty uniform way. This cat is pretty fresh from treatment, so the iodine is very radioactive, but it will decay quickly. That being said, he will need to sleep in their own room for a week or so to lower the odds of cancer for other members of the household. He also can't be around pregnant people or children for a bit.
As a vet nurse i'm very surprised your cat was discharged so soon. In the UK, cats are kept as inpatients for 7 to 21 days after radioactive iodine therapy
We have a lot of pet owners. The vet gets full very fast and spaces gets occupied, thats why here in the US they prefer to send the pet home after a day or two and have you take care of it.
Vets are expensive so a lot of people don't keep them there for too long after treatment. 21 days at the vet sounds very very expensive, especially after this already expensive treatment
Why? Its radioactive iodine. It cannot hurt you unless you injest it. I had my thyroid niked, and i was simlar numbers and was out in ten minutes. Not days, minutes.
@@JPGXX2each animal is different. Cant blame the cat, it’s just going of primal instincts. “I love you man, really do. So when you go, I’ll eat you so nobody else does ❤️” -cat (or something)
My brother had this therapy done for Graves’ disease. It successfully killed off the majority of his thyroid and now he can safely supplement with the right dose of Synthroid for the rest of his life. We still lived at home with our parents when he had this done. He was told to isolate for 3 full days in his room, and whenever he used the bathroom, he had to wipe down anything his skin touched. Wild.
That sounds crazy. I went with a regular surgery and they resected half of my thyroid and I was lucky to have it fully restored w/o any medications. Long live your brother!
Wow, glad that worked for you @bremsberg. My brother has been quite satisfied with his results, as far as I know, and his condition had been pretty dire when he had the treatment. He is now a surgical nurse and I am very proud of him!
Nice that he was allowed to go home. In germany, radiation is mandated very strictly by law so you have to stay locked in a hospital room until you‘re deemed safe to be around again
Chernobyl's radiation levels the first few hours after the explosion would be in the millions or billions if your measuring in cpm, which 1 cpm is a very very very small amount
I keep coming back to this video not because I am amazed or amused by a radioactive cat but there’s just something so adorable about how that cat meows from behind the car window.
its kinda funny but when people (and animals) undergo treatments that involve radioactive elements being put in their bodies (such as iodine and technetium), usually they're instructed to stay inside and away from people for a day or two to allow it to decay enough to be less radioactive, because iodine-131 has a half-life of about 8 hours, and technetium-99m has a half-life of about 6 hours, and waiting 2 day allows Tc-99m to undergo 8 half-lives, and I-131 to undergo 6 half-lives, making them significantly less radioactive, but they will still be measurably radioactive until it fully leaves their bodies and decays.
Your geiger counter doesn't appear to have energy compensation or filter for Beta radiation. Most are calibrated for cesium-137. Iodine-131 (what is usually used to treat thyroid cancer) has a different energy profile, which will make the (somewhat useless) CPM reading go off the scale. In addition, about 90% of the radiation from Iodine-131 is Beta, which can be stopped or greatly reduced by skin, clothing, and obviously keeping your distance from your poor cat, at least for now. So I suppose the upside of this situation is that you can scare people with him and your geiger counter. I've done the same with vintage orange Fiesta plates. Anyway, your real-world risk is probably low, but don't eat your cat, and don't sleep naked with him. Hopefully he gets well soon!

That litter box is gonna need a hazmat team and radioactive contamination disposal measures.
No but really, if you decide to bring your cat home from the vet before about 20 days after the treatment, there are very strict waste disposal rules you have to follow. If that litter goes to the wrong place, you could really mess things up at the dump.
@skittykay yep, we have radiation detectors for all the trucks coming through, they're little PVC pipes fitted with some sensor, had them go off before and rejected many 76,000lb loads for it. Once they leave its their issue, but it's "supposed" to go to a different facility, there's a hole in the side if a mounting somewhere near the eastern United States it gets taken to and dumped down a hole in the mountain lol
I had to hold on to my kitty’s waste for a while until the radiation degraded enough it wouldn’t set off the dump radiation detectors.
I love how the cat is completely unphased by anything going on around him
That's cat by definition.
You don´t know if it´s unphased - he didn´t measure the current...

Cat inside a car:
Your radioactive substance has only made me stronger, Erwin!
I did some math. You'd have to cuddle your cat for 7,211 hours to die of radioactive poisoning.
Edit: Ok, someone asked how I did the math, so I redid it just to confirm, and, unsurprisingly, I made a mistake.
Explanation:
I counted the time to die of radioactive poisoning, not from radiation induced causes. The 100% unsurvivable dose of radiation is 3 Sv(Sieverts). On the card at the start of the video, we can see that 1000 Cpm is 6.5 uSv(microsieverts). Author says in the description that his readings were about 64,000 Cpm || 6.5 x 64 = 416 uSv/h || 3Sv = 3,000,000 uSv || 3,000,000 / 416 = 7,211 hours of exposure.
good thing some types of radiaion decays fast
im doomed
anybody know if the reading is actually accurate?? is the cat like genuinely radioactive lol (probably not but im curious)
@@amishgoatmilker No, the cat is genuinely radioactive. The video description explains it a bit but basically, your thyroid is a gland in your body (and this cat's body) that produces hormones that regulate all sorts of functions. Your thyroid is also pretty much the only organ in your body that absorbs and stores iodine. If your thyroid (or this cat's thyroid) is overproducing hormones, you can treat it by giving them a radioactive form of iodine that is rapidly absorbed by the thyroid and neutralizes and kills some of the cells in a pretty uniform way. This cat is pretty fresh from treatment, so the iodine is very radioactive, but it will decay quickly. That being said, he will need to sleep in their own room for a week or so to lower the odds of cancer for other members of the household. He also can't be around pregnant people or children for a bit.

As a vet nurse i'm very surprised your cat was discharged so soon. In the UK, cats are kept as inpatients for 7 to 21 days after radioactive iodine therapy
Yeah that cat litter is going to be pretty hot!
We have a lot of pet owners. The vet gets full very fast and spaces gets occupied, thats why here in the US they prefer to send the pet home after a day or two and have you take care of it.
Vets are expensive so a lot of people don't keep them there for too long after treatment. 21 days at the vet sounds very very expensive, especially after this already expensive treatment
@@amogusenjoyerYep, the vet took my sister's 2 whole paychecks in 5 days lmao (small surgery and some meds)
Why? Its radioactive iodine. It cannot hurt you unless you injest it.
I had my thyroid niked, and i was simlar numbers and was out in ten minutes. Not days, minutes.

My brother had this therapy done for Graves’ disease. It successfully killed off the majority of his thyroid and now he can safely supplement with the right dose of Synthroid for the rest of his life. We still lived at home with our parents when he had this done. He was told to isolate for 3 full days in his room, and whenever he used the bathroom, he had to wipe down anything his skin touched. Wild.
That sounds crazy. I went with a regular surgery and they resected half of my thyroid and I was lucky to have it fully restored w/o any medications. Long live your brother!
Wow, glad that worked for you @bremsberg. My brother has been quite satisfied with his results, as far as I know, and his condition had been pretty dire when he had the treatment. He is now a surgical nurse and I am very proud of him!
I had my thyroid nuked too. Luckily got it done during covid lockdown so avoiding people wasn't a problem.
Nice that he was allowed to go home. In germany, radiation is mandated very strictly by law so you have to stay locked in a hospital room until you‘re deemed safe to be around again
How does he not get radiation sickness but can give to others around him?
The cat being called Gray (a unit used to describe radiation exposure) makes this 100 times better.
He got that cat straight from Chernobyl
Chernobyl's radiation levels the first few hours after the explosion would be in the millions or billions if your measuring in cpm, which 1 cpm is a very very very small amount

“United States launches tactical nuclear feline”
The tacticat
its kinda funny but when people (and animals) undergo treatments that involve radioactive elements being put in their bodies (such as iodine and technetium), usually they're instructed to stay inside and away from people for a day or two to allow it to decay enough to be less radioactive, because iodine-131 has a half-life of about 8 hours, and technetium-99m has a half-life of about 6 hours, and waiting 2 day allows Tc-99m to undergo 8 half-lives, and I-131 to undergo 6 half-lives, making them significantly less radioactive, but they will still be measurably radioactive until it fully leaves their bodies and decays.
😂🎉🫚
Your geiger counter doesn't appear to have energy compensation or filter for Beta radiation. Most are calibrated for cesium-137. Iodine-131 (what is usually used to treat thyroid cancer) has a different energy profile, which will make the (somewhat useless) CPM reading go off the scale. In addition, about 90% of the radiation from Iodine-131 is Beta, which can be stopped or greatly reduced by skin, clothing, and obviously keeping your distance from your poor cat, at least for now. So I suppose the upside of this situation is that you can scare people with him and your geiger counter. I've done the same with vintage orange Fiesta plates. Anyway, your real-world risk is probably low, but don't eat your cat, and don't sleep naked with him. Hopefully he gets well soon!
thank you for this
