alternageek   10 #3 Posted April 29, 2012 sorry to here this but they are getting like RATS vermin nusience round where i live  There are natural organic ways to keep a cat away from your garden/plant beds. A great way is using rose bush cuttings buried slightly below the soil. Cats will step on the thorns and be spooked away. After a few times will stop coming back. Also as the cuttings the decay, they feed the soil. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Aleksandr   10 #6 Posted April 29, 2012 You might be wrong. Your cat could have eaten a mouse or a rat that had recently eaten a tray full of bait.  Personally, if I had a sick cat, I'd ask the vet what was wrong with it rather than insisting that it had been poisoned. Those symptoms could be due to a number of problems and I'd rather the vet used his or her judgement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

hard2miss   10 #8 Posted April 29, 2012 Well I put rat poison out, for the rats mind. If a cat eats it (Im not sure why it would mind) then its not really my problem as I am trying to keep vermin down.  Its a pity cats could not be more domesticated like dogs so you could have more control over them.  Maybe they have eaten poisoned vermin and that's how it got into its system ?

hard2miss   10 #10 Posted April 29, 2012 Oh but its ok to kill them is it? your unbelievable  I don't think that was the suggestion.  Having rats can be hazardous to humans, people have every right to try and eradicate them.  You may be making assumptions about how your cat died, its obviously up set you but you cannot claim to know that someone has done this with any degree of intention.
