So in an emergency, if you did knock back a cup of paraquat, you
should get stuck into a nice bowl of kitty litter?

It's a common treatment for many things. Should be ground though, not
clumped. Also some cat litter is a super-absorbent polymer which has
its own health risks if you swallow much of it.

My workshop spillage control is a sack of fuller's earth cat litter,
but I ball-milled it first to make it smaller. I buy the good stuff
for wood finishing though.
