Nah, not with two females to start, ten more at the first litters, and
running exponentially from there. I give her 4 years, including the
natural fallout figures. Just Say SPAY!

The lady who used to live next door to me had 13 cats. She took only 6
when she moved. Some are still peeing on my shrubbery, marking their
territory. I _used_ to like cats, even though I'm slightly allergic to
'em. sigh


Larry,

I agree with you to the point that in suburbia one ought to limit the cat
population to two per household and spaying is a great idea. But Gunner and
Karl live in rural environments and as such are not really the problem you
perceive in your neck of the woods.

I'd purely -hate- to be Gunner's closest neighbor, with a dozen
barking dogs 30 feet away. They "welcomed" me loudly when I visited
him. Karl sounds like the most rural of the 3 of us.

5 is not a dozen.

OK, so it sounded like a dozen. in chorus sigh


And I have a lot fewer neighbors these days.
Like...none within 300 feet.

Wow, the little babe (coke ho?) across the street is gone, too? Damn!
Did the vicious Code Enforcement Officer see to most of these
removals?


I'm 3-1/2 miles from the city limits of the vast metropolis known as
Grants Pass, population 30k. Next to me, on 12 acres, are 5 steers
every couple years. Behind me are 2-4 horses on 4 acres. Across the
street is a small orchard on 2 acres. Next to me are two barking dogs
too many.

So you dont like dogs OR cats.

Thanks for that bit of honesty and a look into your world view.

Hey, I love quiet dogs, but most (99%) aren't quiet. Inside cats are
fine, but I'm allergic, so...
