I thought that some of you might like to sign this petition to help to reduce the number of dogs & cats dying every year from licking antifreeze off pavements etc.....

How much do they need to ingest? Surely they have to ingest a bit to taste the bitterness...does it taste nice now? It smells awful.

Apparently it has a sweet taste which would be palatable to most animals. I've not tried it myself though

Apparently the taste is quite sweet (not tried it myself), and they want a really strong bitterness added so that even the smell would be offputting, but a tiny touch with the tongue would make them back off quickly!

It's better than nothing.
