Jeez! kilikini If you live in an area where, for whatever reason, you feel unable to allow a healthy cat its freedom to roam for at least some time each day (and only you can judge your area) then don't have a cat. To have a healthy cat, knowing you will keep it in 24/7 marks you are being cruel, selfish, or both. -- Bob. You have not been charged for this lesson.

This has been confirmed on numerous occasions by people who work at the grass roots level - actually finding homes for cats. Wrong! Where's your source for this information. "Facts" need to be backed up with SOURCES. FYI I have had 3 perfectly healthy cats rehomed to indoor only environments from Battersea Dogs Home. Liar! Having myself volunteered at Battersea in the past I can state quite categorically that Battersea DO NOT rehome healthy cats to an indoor only situation. Well that must have been way back in the past then as I rehomed one as early as last November (2003). They had no problem with it at all. I have the cats here to prove it! You may have volunteered there once upon a time, but you clearly have no idea what is going on there now as "I can state quite categorically that Battersea DO rehome healthy cats to an indoor only situation". So it appears YOU are the liar. I assume your cats are not 100% healthy then. Having watched many of the TV programs centered on Battersea I've seen them state several times that they don't home healthy cats indoors. -- Adrian Lane |
