When Tigger first went missing, I checked often at the front door that also has one of those security screens. Our other cat, Dopey (because she is!) was at the door looking for him as well. I didn't know this, and shut the door pinning her in the three inches there. I walked back to the living room and sat down and heard her yelling (she has a loud meow) and opened the door to find her there. She looked at me like WTF?

symptoms of antifreeze poisoning

No, I asked. His kidney count was about 80 when normal should be 30, so only slightly elevated. Glycol poisoning would cause the count to be 260-300, which is deadly. Also, he has no nausia, diareha, or vomitting. In fact he is eating, which he most likely wouldn't do if it were antifreeze. So thank goodness, but that has been ruled out.
