Stray cats are a 'big problem' in Queensland. Here's what to do if you spot one
Roaming cats are rampant in south-east Queensland, animal welfare experts say, as city councils catch and impound thousands of strays each year.
You're viewing a single thread.
I'm thinking of making an necklace saying:
The next time I see this cat, it's going straight to the pound. If I see it again, you won't see it again.
Then attach it to a stray cat that I do find. Hopefully that gets the owner to keep it indoors.
I don't think you're using "stray" the way most people do.
If it's a stray, it doesn't have an owner to keep it indoors.
If you're dealing with a pet that's been allowed to roam, I'd recommend contacting your local Council for their advice on what to do. I've heard stories of Council giving out cat traps for people to use to catch cats on their property.
If I see it again, you won’t see it again
I mean, if it's got someone to see it, then after it goes to the pound they'll probably just...contact the owners and return it. Might be a fee or something, not sure. Taking the cat to the pound doesn't necessarily mean the owner will never see it again. The shock of having to do that though should hopefully be enough to get them to keep their pet indoors.
I don’t think you interpreted the second part how they meant it…
Oh, right. Well in that case they can get absolutely fucked. Deliberately murdering someone's pet is absolutely psychopathic.
I agree
We have a dingo having around our neighbourhood. I'm hoping that will take care of the cats
