Don’t put antifreeze in your outside water fountain for the sake of animals

PoC avatarPosted on January 3, 2021 by Michael BroadJanuary 4, 2021

Antifreeze killing dogs as well as cats

PoC avatarPosted on August 17, 2018 by Michael BroadAugust 17, 2018

Whenever antifreeze is deliberately put down with the intention of killing feral cats it can kill other animals such as domestic dogs. I am sure that cat poisoners fail to realise this. If you are an antifreeze cat poisoner I’d … Continue reading →

Urgently treating a cat poisoned by antifreeze

PoC avatarPosted on June 10, 2016 by Michael BroadJune 10, 2016

Immediately induce vomiting and then take the cat to a veterinarian. That, in a nutshell, is how you administer urgent treatment to a cat poisoned by antifreeze. I have more or less quoted respected veterinarians. If treatment is delayed, administer … Continue reading →

Don’t use antifreeze in garden water features

PoC avatarPosted on December 8, 2014 by Michael BroadJanuary 23, 2015

PoC avatarPosted on December 4, 2014 by Michael BroadJanuary 23, 2015
