On the street here (small village, cul-de-sac, almost no traffic) playing out is the norm, and we have three play areas - one on the street, one 2 minutes walk away and another (large enough for a soccer pitch) 5 minutes away. It's normal here for children to play out, and for cats to come and go as they wish. Well, it's wonderful that you live in a small, enclosed area where people can feel comfortable allowing their children and animals to roam free; I'm sure they greatly enjoy it. Unfortunately, not all areas are safe for that sort of thing, which is why it always has to be an individual decision, with the children and animals' best interests (primarily safety) at heart. When I was moving I deliberately choose this kind of place to live in as I wanted somewhere safe for the cats to go out. And yes - we all enjoy going out and about. I think that's terrific you had that option. In the UK most people probably do, except for hard-bitten city-centre dwellers and most of us can't afford to live there. -- Five Cats |

If only. Ah well. We does what we can. Karen |
