Like ... can you explain why you (potentially) have no concern what
your cat might be doing whilst not under your supervision?

Unlike you, I'm not a control freak.


Is it *just* because you DGAF about anyone else (which is exactly how
I consider you) and how you might react if someone say regularly let
their dog sh1te all over your front garden (and not clear it up) or
climb on your car (scratching the paintwork) etc?

If I came round your house informing you that your cat climbed in
though our downstairs toilet window, fell into our toilet and then
scratched up our wallpaper in it's panicked efforts to get out and
that you owed us the cost of having that repaired, would you pay up?

If you could prove it, yes.


If my dog had got hold of your cat (on our property) and caused
damage, requiring an expensive vets bill, would you expect me to pay
for it?

How many times do you need to be told. You don't have a dog. I strongly
suggest you seek therapy for this imaginary man's best friend you have.


How much to you actually care for your cat. How much (/little) to you
care about those who live around you?

I care a lot about my cat. His vet bills are not on the NHS and he gets
fed very well. I ensure he is indoors at night - don't particularly want
him to be fox food. Having taken him for walks in the nature reserve, he
does tend to take a dump there. Before you scream about the cat fouling
the area, there are cattle in there at present and dog owners take their
dogs in - despite there being a sign asking them not to. But that's
considerate dog owners for you. You know the type. Bag up the dog ****
and hang it from trees. There was one individual who I actually saw
doing just that and since being confronted, there has been no recurrence.

The neighbours can do their own shopping etc.
