4. So I guess it is wrong to speak up for the cats.

The hard cold reality is that three dead cats at the hands of hawks does depict a pattern of poor pet ownership. There is nothing in the original post that would indicate that her sister has learned her lesson. Hearing that the sister has lost 3 cats to hawks is infuriating. Do your really expect that, if this family continues to take in cats that their fate will be any different if they do not make any changes? There are some changes that could be made to safeguard their pets but do they even care enough to make those changes?

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.


MineralMan, your response is just like the Rethugs saying that it is too soon to talk about gun control after a mass shooting. I will always first and foremost take the side of the animals. Someone has to fight for them. I have had friends that, based upon their pet ownership history, I have looked them right in the eye and told them they had no business owning any more pets.
