Are you going to have a cat pin for the lighthouse official pin? Might as well go all the way in making the most famous cat since Garfield even more famous!!!!!!

Hey, maybe Garfield will want a ride with Trouble, lol.

We don't have cats. But it seems our neighbors (not sure who) let their cats roam around outside. We see cats prowling in our yard, and sometimes they even come up on our deck right outside our patio doors.

We really don't like these cats wandering into our yard, because we are avid bird/squirrel/bunny watchers. There are plenty of baby birds and bunnies in our yard during the summer months. And what do cats like to hunt/catch/eat?

My family had cats when I was a kid, and we always let them roam around outside. Well, now that I'm on the "other side" of things, I have a different viewpoint.

Cats really love going outside.

My one indoor cat loves being allowed out even though one of us stands watching her to make sure she doesn't slink away (which she will do.)

She just lies under bushes and nibbles grass and smiles.

Not only does she not understand about cars, she probably couldn't evade a fox (which live in our woods).

Five stars on Amazon? That's a first for me, I'm definitely adding this one to my wish list!

I'm no expert, but I strongly recommend feeding a cat food designed to minimize urinary track problems. I have two 16 year old cats that get Purina One formula for older cats, and a spoonful of special diet canned food as a treat. One of them was having obvious kidney problems before we switched.

People trust different brands, but I find this brand easy to get anywhere.


Purina One? Thanx for thr tip, I'll have to check it out. I know I've heard of it over Glenn Beck show but it is the dog food version.

I'm not a brand loyalist, but I think formulas for urinary track health are worth it. I can get Purina in the grocery store.

I would NEVER keep a cat indoors.

You would if you lived in my neighborhood or a city. In my neighborhood....the retired community behind us kills them. They don't allow animals in there. And we don't have our own land...all common ground....with perfectly chemicaled lawns and ponds that kill everything. One lady was feeding homeless cats in the next community and they poisoned them and silently left them by her door as a warning. Can't find who did it ...good thing too because I would be in jail.
Living in wide open spaces like I did up north, I always had the cats in and outside....not down here in SFlorida though. Just can't do it if you want to keep your cat alive.
