Speaking of #cat#crimes--a cautionary tale:
Wife brings home the Thing. Puts it on the kitchen table.
Later, the Cat gets bored and jumps on the table. Finds the Thing (amongst other things) and does what cats do: knocks the Thing off the table.
The #Dog, of course, is waiting. They work together at times like this. She picks up the Thing and retreats to the couch. Gnaws the box open. Gnaws what's inside apart. Spills the stuff inside the Thing all over...
... And eats two and a half bits.
The Thing?
A fresh bottle of #Aleve. Naproxen sodium. #Poison. Enough to wreck a #dog's stomach, kidneys, and nervous system. Just like that.
I find the mess. Know that the day has gone horribly sideways. We count the pills left. Desperately search for the missing two plus. No good.
She's at the vet hospital now, since yesterday. Drugs to protect her stomach. Activated charcoal to soak up as much of the Aleve as possible. She seems okay so far.
A dream collaboration between 2 wonderfully evil #corporations, working hand in hand on the future we now live in:
"Is everything of plastic? - Almost!"

POISON Drummer RIKKI ROCKETT - "I'm Riding For Men's Health In The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride"

Did you know that the 1st mass poisoning was fabricated?
In 331 BC, many #rich men had died & ~200 #Roman women were put on trial.
A slave revealed the truth: the rich ladies were poisoners.
The accused were asked to drink their #poison & promptly died. The officials declared them insane.
The #problem is that this doesn’t make sense.
The women had no political agenda, all wealthy men had food tasters & the accused were willing to drink their potions.

Basically, vultures were very important in certain areas to remove cadavers from the area - such as countless cows raised by lacto-vegetarians. ...
An anti-inflammatory medicine was introduced about 3 decades ago to help treat cows (probably helps with milk production).
The substance stuck around in cows who died and were dumped "outside" or "elsewhere", as trash is often dumped.
Vultures ate dead "tainted" cows and also died.
As vultures died, other carrion eating animals came by and feasted, but they were not as nice as the vultures for the ecosystem and for the humans in the area.
Note that vultures often die because of eating poisoned animals, poisoned by humans. Lead, for example, is a common deadly poison left behind by bullets from hunters. Many animals deemed "pests" are poisoned and end up being eaten by a vulture who dies later. That's aside from the various poachers just outright killing vultures.
Why a Canadian class action lawsuit is taking aim at a common weedkiller
Roundup, (Bayer is the owner) the brand name of a glyphosate-based herbicide that is the subject of the lawsuit, is the most commonly used herbicide in the world and has been sold across Canada since 1976 by U.S. company Monsanto. #Poison#Canada#Bayer#Glyphosate#News
