That just goes to show that you really don't know me, the area I live in, or any of the inside/outside cats I've had for the last 30 years. Ivor Look at Professor's history of posting....he's usually looking to antagonize someone.......just my opinion though...but now he'll be mad at me for telling it like it is...he'll follow me around again begging me to stop STALKING him.....Let your cats out, I always have and they are happy and have lived for many years....my wife's best friend is a vet and all her cats go outside.......if I were Professor's cats I'd probably rip his eyes out while he's sleeping... Peace Ivor The difference between professor and myself is obvious.....I don't presume to tell him how to take care of his cats, because I don't know his circumstances, but he is quite willing to tell me how to take care of mine, even though he doesn't know beans about me or any of my cats. - He is a typical liberal. - I have been fighting with them all of my life. They are obnoxious people who think they know everything and are quite willing to make laws that force everyone else to live the way they think they should live. They have no imagination at all, and will be very surprised one day when they are ushered into their padded cells right along with the rest of us, because what goes around, comes around. It's easy for them, (for example) to make laws that force me to wear what they think I should wear while I ride my motorcycle, but when laws are made that force them to wear what society thinks they should wear when pursuing their favorite hobby, they will be very incensed. - But it will be far too late by then, and they will have to enter their padded cell right along with the rest of us. I just wish I could be there to usher them in......... |

I have been arguing with those of your ilk for my entire life. Framing of the issue as a liberal versus conservative issue is inaccurate. You prefer your cats outside because you don't care for them enough to want to change their litter box. Matthew is just as opposed to your don't-give-a-damn attitude yet I don't see you calling him a liberal. If your cats were children and it was a custody battle you'd lose. |

Cat not drinking water
"cshenk" wrote Now, where I am at this time? Indoor cats or let them go to others. Too many busy streets all around me. I would never responsibly raise a cat where I live now, to expect outside as a place to be. Screened porch, ok. More, no. I've said all I have to say on the issue for now. Growing up, we lived in both urban and rural areas of Maryland. My parents were old school "indoor/outdoor" cat people. They were not going to change a cat box. We never had any one cat for long. If they were not hit by a car they were trapped or poisoned. Allowing a cat to roam anywhere at all is irresponsible, period. Ever see the film of the cat that was tortured and killed? The guy filmed it just for jollies. I don't like people who endanger domesticated animals that trust and love them. I never will. I'm not going to fight about it, either. I am just going to say that anyone who endangered their animals for any reason is an ASSHOLE. And until you can control what is out there, you are endangering your cat. All of you bitches who allow yours to roam: when they are injured or killed, you'll get no sympathy from me, just another big **** YOU. We're all entitled to our opinion and that's mine. *bows* ** Posted from http://www.teranews.com ** |

Between the house and barn, climbing up in the rafters of the barn or just hanging out on the porch, they are some happy cats.....and if for some reason a coyote snags one or an owl.......well, that's life. They die with a smile on their little cat face..LOL! |

Ah, foul language. The last resort of those who know they've lost the argument. : We're all entitled to our opinion and that's mine. So am I, but at least I can make my point without swearing at people. : *bows* *plonk* Ivor |

I am finding that many of the cell phone calls I get are also spam calls, too. It won't be long before this device becomes as useless as the regular, "wired" telephone.....Already I am keeping it on silent, or, "vibrate" mode most of the time. I am: William E. Graham, 237 Turnage Street, NW, Salem, Oregon, 97304. And My telephone number is 503-589-4347. We turn it off at night, and only answer calls from those we know. |

I would have many more cats than I have now. Perhaps I would be able to hire people to help me take care of them.......Cats require companionship as well as food and water, however, and I have other hobbies that require my time.....I play the trumpet in several of the local bands. Cats are also territorial, and I already have some problems with the 5 cats that I have now......Although my property is large enough for them, I don't think I could get any more cats and still be able to keep the peace. We have three females and two males, and even though they are all neutered, they sometimes fight with one another over territory and my wife's attention. |
