My spouse is thinking that if my neighbor will not longer shoot our cats or any stray cats(which is a very good thing) he may attempt to poison them instead. This of course is still horrible as not only could cats die but raccoons, possums, rabbits, squirrels etc. This is only a hypothetical question at this point in time. I do not know if this would happen , BUT if it does how long would this take poison (like d-con??) take effect and would any of these animals ingest it?
