Since I Seem To Have Started The "Cat Controversy", A Clarification

[matcom]

first of all, sorry for stirring the "Cat Pot". well, sortof cause i gotta say, my original and the others that followed were (somewhat) entertaining as hell :popcorn:

anyhoo, not sure how the garden poop stuff got started but let me clarify the meaning of my ORIGINAL post:

I got my neighbor to put a bell on his cat so that the songbirds Mrs Matcom feeds (via multiple feeders) could hear it coming and it works GREAT!

simple, EASY, CHEAP solution. i don't give a rats ass about poop in the garden but I DID (try) and make a point. since i worked for a Vet years ago, i KNOW the dangers of Feline Leukemia, AIDS, asshole kids, cars, dogs, other wildlife, etc... (I LOVE my 2 cats and care enough to keep them in)

like i said in my original thread, you CAN leash train your cat. easily. AND........... i also stated that if something happens to your precious kitty when left to roam outdoors, i won't have much sympathy.

anyhoo, not to :rant: again OR (THANK YOU FENRIS :P ) but just wanted to clear that up. thank you friends. now, i'd like to offer a gift of peace to all of you. i can guarantee that 0% of the proceeds go to a good cause :P



j/k of course :D (IT'S A JOKE PEOPLE!!!!)

Anyhoo, I just love it. :sarcasm:

:D

[matcom]

7. anyhoooooooooooo

how YOU doin'? :P

[MissB]

8. The bell would have to be on a collar

and they may strangle from that. Leaping out of trees, getting caught on branches. You get the idea.

[matcom]

9. thems the breaks

here we go again :popcorn:

[MissB]

10. The problem, Matcom, is that something would break

their poor neck, or something like that.

Why do you want to kill my kitties?

[matcom]

16. lol

:eyes:

once again, i'm not gonna touch your kitties. if you let them run, and they get stuck, its YOUR fault

[MissB]

28. I would be most sad

to open my closet door one day and find my cat hanging from a hangar. :cry:

[matcom]

29. a hangar???

:eyes:

[MissB]

32. Well, I would blame it on the queen

because she would likely take a swipe at the young whipper-snapper, thus causing him to leap into the air and get caught on a hanger. That would be after she wakes up from her catnip-induced haze and realizes that the newcomer (whipper-snapper) is curled up next to her.

But it would be your fault. If only he hadn't been wearing a bell. :cry:

19. You Mother-effing Cat Murderer

:sarcasm:

[evlbstrd]

30. The city I live in

requires vaccination and license tags on all cats and dogs. That would call for a collar.

24. Well, Matcom, you did say...

"Go ahead and flame me"! I was one of the flamers. After about an hour of it yesterday, I wondered where the hell Matcom went to! I thought, "That little shit! He started this flame war and left"! Anyway, nobody was harmed in the making of that flamewar. Peace.

[matcom]

25. i enjoy sitting back and watching

quite fun :P

[LynneSin]

26. Well someone gave a rat's ass about it

[skygazer]

27. Speaking of cats and rat's asses

My cat gave a rat's ass just last week. I opened the door at 3:30 am to stumble out to work and stumbled over the half-eaten corpse of a rather large rat. And all that was left was his ass.

Carry on....
