Llandudno,North Wales - Cat dies from poisoning in Conwy county

Llandudno yet again!

The cat was found collapsed and shivering on Llandudno Road

A cat has died after being poisoned with anti-freeze in Conwy county.
The black and white domestic shorthair cat was found collapsed and shivering on Llandudno Road in Penrhyn Bay by a member of the public on January 25.
The cat was collected by the RSPCA and taken for a veterinary inspection.
Vets found that the feline had been poisoned by anti-freeze and had to be put to sleep.
It is believed the cat was a stray, with the animal charity saying there is no indication it had an owner.
The RSPCA is appealing for information and warning other cat owners to be “vigilant and cautious”.
Poisoning symptoms may include vomiting, seeming depressed or sleepy, appearing drunk or uncoordinated, seizures and breathing difficulties.
RSPCA animal collection officer William Galvin said: “This poor stray cat has lost its life due to poisoning. While we cannot be sure of the circumstances behind this incident, we are urging anyone with information to contact us.
“Our inspectorate appeal line can be reached on 0300 123 8018, and calls are treated in confidence.
“We’re also urging cat owners in the local area to be vigilant, and know the symptoms and advice. Anyone suspecting a poisoning incident should stay calm, remove their pet from the poisonous source and contact their vet immediately.”
