Risk of antifreeze poisoning in cats

By 24 September 2018September 24th, 2021No Comments

It is a sad fact that, with the arrival of winter comes an increase in the number of cats poisoned by antifreeze.

Cats are particularly susceptible due to their specialised metabolism. Cats only need to drink a teaspoon or less for it to cause serious illness and even death. So a curious lick or two from a small spillage could be enough to cause serious poisoning.
