Sadly, so do I. We're getting more city-slickers out her. They buy a $300,000
home with a little yard, then proceed to rip out the trees, rocks & anything else
that would offer privacy or individuality. They also cut the grass too short, then
get upset about it dying & turning brown... not to mention their hunting skills.
Many farmers goats or others lawn ornaments have dissappeared every deer
season. The first day of open season, one of the nearby radio stations reported
such incidents. About animals you can't own, I (somehow) do a very good job
with my cat. He is a complete baby & follows me everywhere (goes well with
his name, "Shadow"). My brother says it's a "mommy complex".
LOL!
I know EXACTLY the phenom you describe.
You sound like your bigger brother.

I also understand about the hunters.... i had a half-sheltie, German sherphard dog that i HAD to put hunter's orange bandanna on because people mistook her for a young doe... ( blind, usually drunk townies... WITH guns! )
What is your kitty's name?
I know all about Triatan and Kieran....
