Owner's warning after heartbreak of two cat deaths

A FAMILY has been left devastated after their two cats died from suspected poisoning.

The RSPCA is appealing for people to come forward with information about the deaths.

Denise Saddington, of Carlton-in-Lindrick, Worksop, had to have her two cats put down after they both started to display strange symptoms.

Six-year-old Sasha became sick on Sunday, February 13, and the next day six-month-old kitten, Baby, was also taken ill.

Both cats were taken to a vet and their condition deteriorated overnight. They were put to sleep on Tuesday, February 15.

Mrs Saddington is unsure how her cats came into contact with a poisonous substance, as Sasha had only been outside for a short period of time and Baby had been indoors.

She suspects Sasha may have brought something in from outside and then given it to Baby.

"It is heartbreaking to think both my cats have died from some kind of poison, and now I just want to warn other people in the area to be aware," she said.

"I just hope that by raising awareness we can prevent this from happening again."

RSPCA animal welfare officer Kate Burris said: "This was a very sad incident and we would appeal to anyone who has any information to contact the RSPCA on 0300 1234 999."
