Here we are again, big tuff human picking on small cats. Why don’t we all get together and kill, harm or whatever else to everything small and furry. Cats, Dogs, Rodents, macro pods just because we don’t like them. Just for the hell of it lets kill snakes and lizard as well. Being a reptile career I can honestly say that 80% of the reptiles we care for were attacked by dogs but nobody ever complains about them.
What a well dignified response you gave there.
Funny how it is the human picking on the cat, when the cat is roaming the neighbourhood, what are the current stats.
Cats left to roam at night kill on average 60 native birds a year. That doesnt go into the reptiles etc.
Not real sure why you are wanting to kill everything small and fury.. but interesting take on it.
Also not real sure where in my post i actually say i dont like cats
Any way
Grimberry,
I kept it inside locked in the laundry with some food and water until the ranger got here this morning.
They take them back to the RSPCA and the owner has a nice little fine to pay.
Hopefully it was micro chipped as the collar didnt have any marks on it.
I gues the more humane thing to do as Moth would prefer would to leave cats to roam the neighbourhood, to kill native wildlife, and eventually be hit by a car.
So pretty sure what i did was the right way to go about it.
I dont think killing the animal would achieve a thing. The owner would just think they lost the animal and then go and get another one, which therefore drives the demand up for the cats and compounds the problem further. This way the owner will get a bill for it and think before they let it out to roam the neighbourhood.
