I'm glad we don't need antifreeze here, but thanks for the warning.
atifreeze does more for your car than keep it from freezing, it also prevents corrosion... so you have some form of coolant in your car containg ethylene glycol.

Yeah, It's a sad thing to lose an animal. I had to give up my cat when I moved back to the South. I miss that little fur ball.

I honestly thought everyone knew that Antifreeze was very poisonness, but I guess most people know this fact if they've grown up wrenching or have experienced the hazards. We've got to start using our power as consumers. Government/Corporate America and the World as a whole can be so easily controlled if people realized the consomer power we have. Don't buy a product if it's poisoness. Contribute to an organization that is leading for a "green" life. It's so easy to make a change, but I'm getting WAY off topic with my usual political rants.

Once again, Sorry to hear about your feline.

sorry to hear about your cat. and to those people who would comment "it's your fault for letting it out", a cat's a cat, it should be allowed to.

in the end you cannot control the universe. sometimes bad things happen that simply could not have avoided. so, theres no point in beating yourself up over it or someone else for that matter.

many antifreeze manifactures aldeady do this... just look on the container, it will say embittered

while on the subject, did you hear about the colgate toothpaste that was laced with ethylene glycol, it some how made it in to the US and on the shelves of stores... the tubes containing the poison state they are shipped from South Africa right on the tube... it was a hugh story around here
