Might give the poor kitties indigestion, but if not, it would be the most useful thing the lib ever did with his “life”.

I used to think that the Global Warming Zealots just wanted a world without people. Now carnivorous animals are part of the problem too.

Gassy Cows Are Warming The Planet, And They’re Here To Stay

Humans the world over are eating meat and drinking milk — some of us a little less, some of us a lot more, than years past. Farmers are bringing more and more cows into the world to meet demand, and with them escapes more methane into the atmosphere.

the fact that it’s guilty for the planet’s suffering

The planet is suffering? How does she know? does the magma speak to her? Maybe the owl calls her name and then tells her stuff, although I've found owls to e rather poor conversationalists never being able to get beyond asking who they're talking to. Maybe she hears it in the wind when she's taken the proper medication.

Not too much in terms of bad-condition meat can give a cat indigestion. Their stomach acid pH is usually between 1 and 2, so cats’ gastric juices usually kill off the vast majority of pathogens, and they can even digest a certain amount of bone.

I dated a girl back in the 80’s that could actually order her cat around. If she told that cat to sit, it would stop and sit. Darndest thing I ever saw.

There are only 2 good uses for cats.

1. Keep mice and rats out of the barn

2. Target practice when they get over populated.

It's a common condition caused by the fact that she's not getting enough meat in her diet ...

I spooked a couple out of the tree in my courtyard in June.

They were safe. They made it to my table and momma came in and fed them there. Took them one day to get to the roof and out.

Any other place and they would be lunch. I’m glad they made it.

Isn’t a “harf” alert more appropriate in this case? That’s the hairball sound.

cats that go or live outdoors eat urban wildlife, particularly newborn chicks

Who knew there were urban free range baby chickens?

Mine keeps the critter population down. They eat bugs, snakes, squirrels, etc. and I thank them for it.
