it was in her garden, I was in upstairs window, she came out shouted at him he scarpered and sat on fence between our houses, she then picked up a football and chucked it at him. I don't knwo her should I go round and complain I am livid

and it was the cause of my cousin being born half blind and with special needs.

so yes... it is dangerous

Bearess · 29/04/2005 17:03

I have to say it is dangerous though, Joanne. I didn't clean out her tray when pg, bliss, is it toxoplasmosis?

Children can be blinded by the germs carried in cat poo. If it's that or the football, I know which one I would choose.

Are you going to offer to clean up your cats faeces next time it craps in her garden?

SaintGeorge · 29/04/2005 17:04

Was it a big old fashioned leather football that weighs a ton? Or a light plastic football that weighs bugger all and can't hurt unless you are stood 2 foot away and can throw like an all in wrestler?

I throw footballs at my own cat if she goes to poo anywhere except in her own part of the garden. She's 17 and pretty healthy so don't think it's ever done her any harm.

Joanne23 · 29/04/2005 17:04

she isn't pregnant though i don't think. she's just a bitch obviously. wish we'd never moved here

she has small children!!!!!

FFS! Thats why she doesn't give a crap about your precious cat!!!!

starlover · 29/04/2005 17:07

joanne... it can be dangerous even if you aren't pregnant.

rickman... please don't be offended. i don't think anyone here thinks it's funny to shoot a cat, i certainly don't. but it's a bit different to a kids plastic football that didn't even hit the cat!

snafu · 29/04/2005 17:07

Good first thread though, Joanne...

Joanne23 · 29/04/2005 17:07

my cat has as much right to be safe as her children. Ive got kids too doesn't mean I chuck balls at people

OP posts:
starlover · 29/04/2005 17:07

I have had 3 cats, and certainly don't hate them. But I can see why someone would chuck something at one if it was always shitting in the garden!

Bearess · 29/04/2005 17:08

lol snafu

starlover · 29/04/2005 17:08

yeah, your cat probably doesn't shit in your own garden though does it joanne?

fairyfly · 29/04/2005 17:09

Was it a medicine ball ?

colditz · 29/04/2005 17:09

Your cat does not have as much right as her children, especially in her garden.

If you can't see that, then you are not worth the discussion.

starlover · 29/04/2005 17:10

maybe the cat threw it at her first

Would you be happy for her children to crap in your garden? They have to crap somewhere if they're playing outside, right?

SaintGeorge · 29/04/2005 17:12

rickman - wouldn't throw ball at the dog, but would collect poo in plastic bag and deposit on owners doorstep. If they won't follow the law and clean up after the dog then at least they can have the poo back.

snafu · 29/04/2005 17:12

No, but I would give the owner a mouthful, rickman.

starlover · 29/04/2005 17:12

colditz... when we were potty training one of the boys i looked after he did his poo in this big flower pot in the garden!
he was so proud that he had gone on the "potty" LOL

piffle · 29/04/2005 17:12

our neighbours hoses our cat as it keeps crapping in their flower beds, I don't mind at all, the cat should crap out in the hedge out the front...
It does so now
Cat poo is disgusting, I offered my neighbours some excellent cat repellant little round citronella balls to show that I accept responsibility and as neighbour is pregnant I have offered to clean up any she does find...

fairyfly · 29/04/2005 17:13

It is like the dog owner then knocking on your door and bollocking you for not liking it

colditz · 29/04/2005 17:13

LOL Starlover... my brother wee'ed in a pot of zinc and castor oil nappy cream once.

starlover · 29/04/2005 17:14

even worse, a co-workers ex husband came home totally pissed one night and went to the toilet.
only he went in the cupboard next to the toilet.
and instead of the toilet he had lifted the lid on the box that their wedding album was in and pissed in it
