You need to do something to help your neighbor if this is real because this is 100% your fuckup, all of it. You let your cat outside, despite knowing the neighbor leaves out antifreeze, and the inevitable happened. Cats are not outside pets (for a variety of reasons you can easily google.) Please learn from this mistake with the new cat.

Yeah I'm confused why people are mad for the neighbor leaving out antifreeze and not the owner for letting the cat out. I think op is responsible for killing his own cat. This is why cats should be kept indoors.

I have two cats and cant imagine blaming my neighbor for my own neglect. He was within his right to keep whatever on his property.

No, neighbor was negligent for leaving out antifreeze; he’s lucky it was a cat and not a child that got into it.

It was in HIS yard and op left his cat outside unsupervised for three whole days without having anyone to check on the cat- this is a new post with lots of missing info- and he knew about the antifreeze situation already. No one is responsible for your pet but you, same with a child, if a child had gotten into it it would be the parent that was negligent since a child shouldn’t be in someone else’s yard.

They aren’t, anywhere but England and I think maybe Egypt they are highly invasive and shouldn’t be given free roam outside
