    They get caught and get sent to kennels, cats don't.

    I've trained our Ringo to chase cats off, he's the boss of our street.

    The feral dog population

    is very small.
    While the estimated feral cat population in the UK is in the millions.
    And is a serious issue for conservation.

    Dog **** in nature reserves can be a problem, increasing nutrient levels. And of course there are human health issues.

    Sounds like mine...she used to be happy wandering about until next door's Doberman's scared her off. As you say, they never get walked either, well except when the gate is open and they run round to ours to try and get food. They just spend all day in the next door garden (and night actually) barking stupidly loudly, until the owner shouts at them. Repeat all day/night. Great fun when you can't get to sleep

    RE: The feral dog population

    Sorry, are we talking about feral or pets?

    The difference, and it is why there is a difference in law, is that you cannot train a cat like you can a dog, so there isn't the same owner responisbility for their actions.

    Utter Garbage.

    Thats like saying you can't take responsibility that your pet lion has killed someone becasue they can't be trained.

    If you can't control your cat not to kill the local bird population/**** in neighbours gardens/keep the neighbourhood up all night screeching... then you shouldn't be allowed to keep one.

    You don't need a cat, you just want one.

    RE: The feral dog population

    So not being able to train a creature to do what you want it to do, because it is independant and a free thinker, means the animal lacks intelligence?

    "You don't need a cat, you just want one."

    Errrr....isn't the same exactly true about a dog?

    well i disagree i have noticed dog **** is reducing and reducing fast but cat **** its a bad situation when i have to go around the garden checking before i let my kids out incase theres cat **** in the place of play they leave it everywhere and if it was'nt for the wife i would have poisoned them by now.

    I sat up one night and waiting with a flask of bioling water in the upstairs window and managed to get one at it under the window.
