Cats should be banned. They shit all over your garden and leave other people to have to clear it up. If cats ever come in my garden I spray them with the hose.
We all make a song and dance about dog owners clearing up behind their dogs but have no problem with letting cats crap all over the place. What's that all about?

I have 2 rescue cats an I love them to bits. They were about 9 months old when I got them from Worthing Cat Rescue. Needed cost too much to run foodwise, I prefer to give mine rather more costly stuff than what's in the average cheap cat food - mine get some sliced roast turkey from the deli counter at Sainsburys every week, but that's a bit of a luxury (and they absolutely love it).
I have insurance for them, not used it yet and that can be a bit costly, definitely shop around.
I got 2 as I'm out of the house for 14 hours a day, so they keep each other company.
I do like to think I know a little about the subject, my parents owned a dog boarding kennels and cattery so I was brought up surrounded by them.
so we are not the only ones who spoil our cats then
only difference is chicken from ASDA
We had a cat when I was a kid, we went on holiday one year for a fortnight and found the cattery cost a fortune as we had no one to feed her, for our next holiday instead of the cattery we had her put down and bought a new kitten when we got home. Saved us a fortune.
My Daughter got our cat from RSPCA at Patcham at about 1 year old. They have normally made an assessment of the Cat and will tell you if they are good with children, lively, quiet etc. They told us that she had been kept with lots of other cats and hadn't had a lot of contact with Humans, probably not good with small kids (my daughter was about 13 at the time).
When we got her home she would turn into a hissing ball of teeth and claws with no apparent warning. Talked to RSPCA and they told us to try for a few more weeks. After 2-3 months she calmed down and now (3 years later) is incredibly affectionate. She can still do the teeth and claws thing whenever another cat or fox come into the garden.
On costs, allow for Pet Insurance, food (our cat has got more picky as she has gone on and seems to only like the most expensive types !) and boarding for holidays (adds about £80-£100 a week to any holiday we go on).
i do assume the cheaper cat foods contain modtly rubbish, but I don't know. I have noticed the better quality food
I give them, they then turn their noses up at anything cheaper (stuff they used to eat).
Funny one the other day, I thought I'd give them Sheeba tuna for a change, so not the cheapest, they both smelt it and looked up at me to say "we're not eating THAT" .... so I had to throw it and give them something they liked. Definitely spoilt, but I love doing it - they had a hard start to their little lives.
we picked up a cat in Shoreham while I worked with Cats Protection she hated everything and everybody she was that bad we could not re-home her after she had her kittens she was just as bad .....she is still with us some 13 years later still feisty but quieter since she became top-cat
good thing is Rescue Remedy on the tips of the ears for a while
really making me laugh
been there done that and got the ripped tee-shirt

I used to be a hose man but recently I have converted to the Nerf Gun- and what a decision that was! Few things in life more satisfying than letting one rip and just knowing that orange pellet is going to thud into its target.
