To not care that my cat craps in neighbours gardens

I have cats.

They go outside (as they should).

They probably shit I the neighbours garden but mostly they seem to shit in our garden.

I suspect they kill small furry animals too and I know they do as well as birds

As do lions, tigers, lynxes, snow leopards, blah blah.

I don't approve of "indoor" cats.

Sparkling I had a cat that used to dry hump next doors rabbit - never know a cat to eat one though Grin

Tyzer85 · 17/01/2015 23:06

FWIW the rabbit ain't big so it wouldn't have been difficult for the cat to do some serious damage, I didn't feel good but what was I meant to do, sacrifice the rabbit?

usualsuspect333 · 17/01/2015 23:07

Rabbits are weird,and a bit weedy really.

Buxtonstill · 17/01/2015 23:08

Wow! are people really that bored and craving attention that they need to start antagonistic threads for the sake of it? Lord, it must be exhausting to want to start arguments just to get people to pay you attention.

Interestingly my DC (who are adults now) had a rabbit years ago. It was a nasty vicious bastard.

I hated it but I didn't begrudge the poor bastard.

It wasn't the rabbits fault it wasn't native to the UK. That would be the fault of those bastard Romans.

Coming over here and upsetting our fauna.

I'm sure rabbits would be happier hopping about and shifting in the countryside than coped up in cages.

Bettercallsaul1 · 17/01/2015 23:09

Grin Poor bunny wabbits! I didn't know they were the spawn of Satan.

Salmotrutta · 17/01/2015 23:10

Buxton - so why are you posting then?

Why not ignore?

Rabbits are bastards.

They have far too many children.

I bet they get benefits.

And social housing.

It's not really exhausting posting on the internet,not unless you are on a treadmill or summat at the same time.

Sparklingbrook · 17/01/2015 23:12

Rabbits don't do much from what I can remember. I got bored of mine when I was little and let my friend have him.

Cleaning the hutch out with all the little pooey balls and wet newspaper. No fun at all.

At the time we had a cat and a rabbit and neither ate the other funnily enough.

Then Mum and Dad got an alsatian. Confused

ghostyslovesheep · 17/01/2015 23:12

we had a black rabbit growing up - it was pure evil and used to scratch the fuck out of anyone who went near it

I also once had a rabbit savage a beloved Guinea pig - tore a big hole in his leg - bastard - I'd have paid a cat to eat either of them

Exhausting! - what a crock of shit.

yabu

My indoor cats are very happy.

Would they maybe be happier going outside? possibly. However, they are my responsibility, my shit to clear up.

They have never been outside and my rag doll would not last a minute outside. I also see too much road kill here.

trice · 17/01/2015 23:13

The cat that mostly shat in our garden has been killed by a car. There are still sad posters up on all the lamp posts. I shall miss the stinky bugger.

Sparklingbrook · 17/01/2015 23:13

Rabbits attract rats.

Morloth · 17/01/2015 23:14

My sister inadvertently solved her cat sitting in the garden beds problem by adopting a rescue husky.

Sure it was messier for a while.

My cat is a self imposed indoor cat. She has access to the garden (which is netted because if she gets caught in the national park she will be shot/baited).

But chooses to spend all her time on one soft surface or another snoozing.

Rainbunny · 17/01/2015 23:14

Our adopted Rhodesian Ridgeback came to us with a previous history of killing cats. Please by all means let any cat wonder into our back garden to take a crap, our dog will definitely welcome the visitor (meal/chew toy).

Tinks42 · 17/01/2015 23:15

Im with Tyzer on this one... I hate cats.

ExitPursuedByABear · 17/01/2015 23:15

I feel sorry for rabbits. They mostly have a shit life alone in a small hutch.

Bugger. I am all depressed now.

Sparklingbrook · 17/01/2015 23:16

If you have a dog there's crap all over the garden in any case.

Sparklingbrook · 17/01/2015 23:17

Rabbits sometimes get a Guinea pig as a mate for some reason. I bet they hate that.

usualsuspect333 · 17/01/2015 23:18

I'm not sure why dog owners are so proud of their cat killing machines.

Tinks42 · 17/01/2015 23:19

Yeah your dog your garden...

ghostyslovesheep · 17/01/2015 23:19

poor guinea pigs locked up all day with rapey sex obsessed bitey bastards :( - I may start a campaign

I am sure lovely animal killing dogs make perfect family pets and would never harm a small child - which is nice Grin
