Everyone can change the thread title of the post they're making at the time.

I didn't want to waste your thread, but on second thoughts - it's better to start a new one.

Herbert might decide to delete this thread if it hasn't got a purpose.

Anyone can change anyone elses thread title?

SOB

Yes anyone can change a title, but only for their post. It will revert back to the original title when the next person posts.

As for Cats  ??  another War lost.. to the eternal detriment of the Oz ecology. 

IT is undeniable guys...  your pretty pussycats are decimating native wildlife. ( They are NOT alone.. but they ARE a Plague)

Don't blame the cats ~ blame the Local City Council By-Laws, The State legislature, and the federal Parliament.

It was they who didn't think to legislate for heavy penalties against irresponsible cat owners. Even as late as the year 2013 my City Council does not require cat owners to have their males spaded.

And it has only been in the last couple of years that cat owners must have their cats micro-chipped and registered with the council.

If I was asked why there are so many suburban strays ... (that eventually drift into the wooded national parks) ... I would unhesitatingly say that it's because of the crippling fees that vets charge for even the simplest and most routine of their services.

I know from my own experience that owning even one cat is a blistering impost on one's meagre Age Pension resources.

Age Pensioners should be allowed to supplement their government benefits by blazing away in the bushlands as feral cat bounty hunters ~ (thanks for the idea, Emma).

.... all domestic cats should be ... kept indoors.   

And dogs, of course ... ?

Do you have any idea how many TONS of dog-poo is laid each day in Sydney's backyards, streets, and gutters ... attracting gazillions of flies in from the surrounding bushlands? And rats.

... 300 tons. 

Where ... I said WHEREdo you keep YOUR dogs, Emma Peel?

Hmmm..... ? 

After Emma told us to "Keep your cats inside!"
She walked her dogs to the nearest curbside,
And THAT's where several deposits were made
When we all know that kitties bury theirs without a spade ...

...herbie..  :)

OK we've moved on since this post ..but seeing as this topic seems to be at a loose end...


thought I'd  reply... well sort of..  bit late for in depth  ...

My Dog  !!
purchased from the Pound .. an older dog...
.. she sleeps on my bed..  or her own .. inside at night.. as she chooses.. 
I'm snoozin'....  she is very understanding.. :-*

she has a fenced acre or so to chase mayflies and butterflys,  and ..
...BIRDS... LOVES chasing birds.. especially a magpie family... BUT..
she never catches them :)

Haha. Are you being serious?

I deleted my post because it was obviously off topic for this particular thread and started a new thread using the post I deleted.

If you can't afford an animal - don't get one?

Cat Care will arrange for your cat to be desexed for $50. It is also mandatory to register them, because unregistered and undesexed cats without a microchip, if caught by a disgruntled neighbour, will end up at the RSPCA (or worse) with an uncertain fate.

You can pick up a kitten or mature cat at the RSPCA for $160 - desexed and microchipped. Registration fees are $75 for life or if you have a health care or pension card - $15.

If you care for your cat, they are expensive to maintain - especially feeding them. I pay $1 a tin for my own tuna - but $1.70 for the same size tin for the cat.

You can treat a cat with a certain type of human antibiotic quite successfully, although you have to be very careful with the measurements being accurate for the weight of the cat.

There is nothing wrong with feeding them "human" tuna.

I do very occasionally, but it only likes the one with brine - which is a bit salty and probably not good for the kidneys.

I think you can get cats from the RSPCA for $20 at the moment. There is some kind of special on. That works out to about $10 per kilo.

My cats used to only like the ones with oil - which is actually good for them.

Except 1 cat who preferred really expensive salmon.

I had forgotten how fussy cats were. They might like salmon or tuna one day, but hate it the next. I hadn't thought of feeding a cat oily tuna - but I'll give it a go.

Have you had a cat with dementia Roach? Or are you a cat with dementia?

Hmmm...seems to me you are a trifle confused
n'est ce pas?

I understood.

It's been 3 years since you posted here Roach. Are you going to follow me around the threads being your usual denigrating self? If not - it's a large board - I'm sure you'll find someone more interesting than me to troll.

I think roach does have dementia—thinks it knows something about IT  ;D
