Farslad   10 #51 Posted September 23, 2010 i am in woodhouse.  I'm not far away in Handsworth. Time to keep a close eye on my 2. One of them is half wildcat and roams for bliddy miles.  Thanks for the heads up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Leg-end   10 #53 Posted September 23, 2010 I can't stand cats and I'm not too fussed about their irresponsible owners (no, I didn't actually want your cat to mess in my garden), but the thought of someone deliberately killing an animal in a slow torturous manner is sickening!

djelibeybi   10 #54 Posted September 23, 2010 (edited) My sincerest condolences to anyone whose cat has suffered anti-freeze poisoning. In Walkey it would appear that someone was putting down cat biscuit laced with antifreeze as the PDSA had seen a few cases but none of the cats had telltale burning of the mouth, nose or throat which would've prompted more immediate and appropriate treatment.  I would urge anyone who has been a victim, or has information regarding someone deliberately poisoning animals to ring the RSPCA on (0300) 1234 999.  Yes, accidents do occur due to careless storage or disposal of ethylene glycol, but unfortunately regarding the incidents in Walkey, the Police, vets and RSPCA say all the evidence seems to indicate it is deliberate. Ethylene glycol poisoning is by no means localised, affecting hundreds of pets and wild animals nationally. It's such a shame that some people consider it an acceptable way to resolve their own issues.

mrs-g   10 #56 Posted September 27, 2010 I can't believe how senseless and cruel people can be, it makes me sick!! There should be tougher sentencing laws against cruelty to animals, anybody who is capable of harming a defenseless animal in such a cruel way, has the potential to move on to harming people...  Sorry for your loss.

Bulgarian   10 #57 Posted September 27, 2010 So did we find any proof that someone deliberately poisoned the cat or was it an accident ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Campanula   10 #59 Posted September 29, 2010 I'm not a cat lover but I'm really sorry to hear about what happened, that must have been a horrendous thing to go through! I hope it was just an accident - I hate to think anyone could be so evil as to do that to an animal deliberately! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
purple.sarah   10 #60 Posted September 29, 2010 That's awful, I hope the police catch the person responsible. People who attack animals can also go on to attack people. Psychos like that are why I can't let my cats out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
