Burns Pet Nutrition has issued advice for keeping cats safe as the nights draw in ahead of the clocks changing. Autumn has been found to be the worst time of year for cats getting injured on the road, a study using data from Vets Now shows.
That means drivers have to be even more careful on the road to ensure that they don’t make someone’s furry friend their casualty. The risk of cats suffering from road traffic injuries and fatalities at night is increased and 4% of cats suffer from road traffic accidents.
And it’s not only drivers that can help the feline to be safer – owners can too.
