If you love cats, why are you considering dropping one off ten miles from its home, where it will be confused and miserable, wondering where its people are, and will probably end up getting run over?

Taking out your irritation on the animal makes no sense. Put up a notice, ask around, find out who the cat belongs to....then read the owners the riot act.

Finally, a sensible, responsible post.

There's only 72 units in my detached condo sub and we're surrounded by houses and other condos so putting out notices isn't sound advice........

***why are you considering dropping one off ten miles from its home,***

My momma used to sing this song when I was young.

http://www.kididdles.com/lyrics/c020.html

Old Mister Johnson had troubles of his own
He had a yellow cat which wouldn’t leave its home;
He tried and he tried to give the cat away,
He gave it to a man goin’ far, far away.

But the cat came back the very next day,
The cat came back, we thought he was a goner
But the cat came back; it just couldn’t stay away.
Away, away, yea, yea, yea

The man around the corner swore he’d kill the cat on sight,
He loaded up his shotgun with nails and dynamite;
He waited and he waited for the cat to come around,
Ninety seven pieces of the man is all they found.

But the cat came back the very next day,
The cat came back, we thought he was a goner
But the cat came back; it just couldn’t stay away.
Away, away, yea, yea, yea

He gave it to a little boy with a dollar note,
Told him for to take it up the river in a boat;
They tied a rope around its neck, it must have weighed a pound
Now they drag the river for a little boy that’s drowned.

But the cat came back the very next day,
The cat came back, we thought he was a goner
But the cat came back; it just couldn’t stay away.
Away, away, yea, yea, yea
