We recently had a circular through the door from someone who had lost two cats and was seeking the source. Said they thought it was people (cretins) using antifreeze in their ponds to stop them freezing?
Yes this crossed my mind as well when I saw this yesterday. I think people add antifreeze to those 'tasteful' water features rather than ponds though.
Yes, I should have said water features. I have a very tasteful (in my eyes at least) birdbath but I don't use antifreeze in it.
Something that I am sure the birds are grateful for...
I am always conscious of thoroughly flushing the drive if I spill any, and tend to use a bowl under the radiator drain to drop the coolant, allowing for it to be reused or suitably disposed of as appropriate.
I think if it was accidental then the bodies might have been found.
I think it`s sick that people do this kind of thing and if anything happened to either of my two cats then I`d be doing everything I could to find the culprit.
Next door have cats, and I have to be careful not to shut them in the garage as they are quite nosey
and whilst I try to discourage them from loitering, I would never actively harm them...
There are some absolute schunts around though. Always have been and always will be
I could not be held accountable if someone deliberately harmed one of my pets, but unfortunately, unless you have easy access to a slurry pit, anything you might consider doing would be an added burden on NHS resources.
