A list of 230 cat poisons. The list is not comprehensive but it is long and thorough. The purpose? To alert concerned cat owners to the possible cat poisons that might surround them. The list is applicable to many countries, particularly the USA. Notice: don’t deliberately poison a cat. It is cruel and a crime. You don’t want to be a criminal as you’ll probably regret it when you are older and wiser. Without wishing to state the obvious, if you suspect that your cat has ingested any of these poisons an immediate and urgent call to your veterinarian is required. Although there must be a variable degree of poisoning.
