So hard to understand why some people do what they do. |

I had a beautiful small dog that someone poisoned by throwing poisoned meat in my yard. Leroy Brown never was left out there and never barked either. Many of us went through this in our neighbourhood. There were all sorts of investigations but we never found out who was doing it. |

I wish they had mentioned the acetaminophen (Tylenol) dosage that was in the package of cat treats. <This should be a lesson to all of us who want to overindulge in Tylenol. The stuff scares the bejesus out of me and I take only about 2 extra strength acetaminophen a month for a very certain kind of tension headache that occasionally wakes me at dawn with a pain in the back of my head.> Edited by Trotsky, Sep 21 2013, 02:32 AM.

That is dreadful. Our first cat, this was 1969 I believe, was accidently poisoned after consuming rat poison in a neighbour's yard. It remains vivid in my memory because it was our first day at a new school, new area of town, no vet closer than 100 miles (pre metric) |

All of a sudden all the squirrels have disappeared from our next-door park. I suspect it was the rat poison canisters. |

I don't know whether these poisonings are accelerating or whether they are just reported more often. But this the latest of several in and around Toronto in the past few years. Some sick bastard once dropped wieners laced with poison in our local park, sickening several dogs and killing at least one. Treating cat treats with Tylenol indicates a specialized knowledge of animals and toxicity. Hope they catch him. |
