catsophie 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2007 There's no license for cats since they are "supposedly" not allowed to be kept in hdb flats Bottomline, you need to be a responsible cat owner. Get your pet neutered and toilet train them. Never let them stray, pee or poo around your neighbour's compound. Must bear in mind that not everybody like animals and some people are terrified of them.As for kitten proof my house, I never do so. One of my cat is too old and have weak hip while the naughty one is too timid to go out. He only peep outside and look out the window. But you can never be too careful though. If you have those hyperactive or curious cat, perhaps you'd like to get those mesh from pet shop to cover up your windows and gates i think it's not.before i took my cats from another country , the officer of ava show me the rules of hdb, it says no cat allowed in hdb. but compared with the small size dog, cats're even more quiet!

My old place, got this lady who anyhow let her cats roam and multiply. Those volunteers no choice but have to help catch, neuter and feed her cats. I think the lady senile already. People help feed her cat also kena scolding.Now I saw some of her cats are wondering in the market place. After the en bloc... I dunno what will happen to those poor kitties lor Everytime I see cats with no home... I sure feel like crying. So emo one... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a legrand brochure/catalog which i wrote down the prices for most models.tonite i go home see can find or not...yes yes i can wait thank you so muchhi lin_stapler, i also feel heart pain when i see homeless straysthose feral ones still not so bad, but those abandoned ones everytime someone walks near they'll look up with anticipation, hoping it's their 'owner' who had cameback for thembreaks my heart seeing the anticipation, then disappointment in their eyes...sometimes i visit a privately-ran cattery, some of the cats there are abandoned while the rest are rescued. those rescued are all abused on the streets so the volunteers brought them back, feeling that they can't protect themselves.the abandoned ones, in the first two weeks, will look up with anticipation. some will stop eating when they realised their 'owner' had left them for good sometimes i have to stop myself from sayanging the stray cats on the road. it's the friendliness of these felines that get them into troubles later - caught by pest controller or abused by lunatics. when they stop fearing human, they are ripe target for the sadists Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
