🚨 Protect Cats from Antifreeze Poisoning! 🚨
As temperatures drop, it's crucial to take extra care when using products containing ethylene glycol, such as antifreeze and de-icing sprays. These substances are highly toxic to cats, even in small amounts, and can cause severe illness or be fatal if ingested.
To keep your feline friends safe:
🐾 Store all antifreeze products securely and clean up spills immediately.
🐾 Consider switching to a propylene glycol-based antifreeze, which is much less toxic to animals.
🐾Consider de-icing your car the manual way, even if it leads to cold hands.
Signs of antifreeze poisoning include vomiting, lethargy, and difficulty walking. If you suspect your cat has come into contact with antifreeze, seek urgent veterinary advice- early treatment is critical.
