So, to suggest that Ted should have kept an old, ill cat inside where he is safe is to be a troll? Idiot.

Ted Davis wrote: Speaking of Siegfried, he's also showing signs of being a very demanding computer room cat - he's walking all over my hands, meowing, and licking my fingers right now ... and purring loudly enough to be heard across the room. ... A bit of petting did not calm him down for more than a minute or so. That kitten is going to be a problem. Correction: he *is* a problem. Well, you DID name him "Siegfried"! He's just living up to his name (although one can hope he's a bit brighter than Wagner's hero). |

Mischief wrote: Well I certainly send purrs for Spooky. I hate the idea of a cat going away to 'die in peace' I wouldn't want my cat to do that. If my cat was old, i would hope it would either choose a safe place here at home or let me know when he wanted to go. But that's just me. Well, that IS what animals do in the wild, and I gather from his posts that most of Ted's cats have been semi-feral rescues. It's a sad fact of feline life, but personally I'd rather that than keep a suffering cat with a terminal condition alive simply because I couldn't bear to part with it. Better the cat take the decision out of my hands. |

You've never posted here before, and Ted has been telling about his brood of rescued cats for some time, now. (P-L-O-N-K!) |

He's just living up to his name (although one can hope he's a bit brighter than Wagner's hero). He's stupid enough to want to go outside long before he's big enough for it to be reasonably safe. But as soon as he gets onto the top back step (with me sitting there, of course), he decides he really doesn't want all that space. The back door used to close by itself - before the storm door blew away - but now it has to be actively closed because the exhaust fan will pull anything less than tightly closed open again - that's how the kittens can get out ... that and out the front when I prop the door and storm door open to bring in groceries, but none of them as gone more than three feet onto the pourch (then entire huge patio is covered so it's more like inside than the back where the transition is abrupt). -- T.E.D. ) SPAM filter: Messages to this address *must* contain "T.E.D." somewhere in the body or they will be automatically rejected. |

"cybercat" wrote in message ... "Joy" wrote in message .net... I'm so glad Snowball came home! I'm sorry about Spooky. Purrs that he comes back to you. Please ignore the troll I just plonked. So, to suggest that Ted should have kept an old, ill cat inside where he is safe is to be a troll? Idiot. Ted obviously has far more respect for the animal, then cybercat. Cybercat seems very immature with the nature of cats. They are not little people, you are not six years old, Cybercat! Clangnuts |
