Roaming Cats...
I was home last night, feet up, watching House on DVD, eating some french fries.... when my cat started hissing at something outside.
I went to the front window and outside on my steps were 2 kittens. Well, not exactly kittens but very young cats. They were small and looked lost so I went outside and caught one. The tag had a name and phone number, so I called.
The conversation went something like this:
Me: "Hello. I found two cats straying through my yard. They look kinda lost."
Her: "Where are you located?"
Me: "108 ----- street."
Her: "Oh, we are at 90 ----- street. So they haven't traveled all THAT far. They are like panthers - claiming a huge territory. They will come home when they are done roaming."
Me: "You really think they are safe roaming free around the neighborhood."
Her: "They will be just fine."
Not only are there a lot of cars going up and down this road, but there are a lot of neighbors with swimming pools. I think next time I might just catch them and give them to a shelter.... Am I right or wrong here?
