A cat has died of 'antifreeze poisoning' just days before its first birthday, prompting an animal welfare charity to issue a stark warning to owners.
Velvet was discovered 'wobbly and lethargic' by her owner outside a property on Lothian Road in Stewarton, East Ayrshire, on Sunday, September 11.
Alarmed by the state of her declining health, Velvet's owner rushed the feline to an out of hours vet where medics sadly confirmed that she was suffering from antifreeze poisoning. Sadly the cat had to be put to sleep a short time later.
