This is NOT about justifying what she did.
IF *MY* pets were a problem to a neighbor, whether it was peeing on a garden, scratching car paint by walking on parked cars, getting in garbage or meowing by a neighbor’s window I WOULD FEEL RESPONSIBLE FOR MY PETS’ ACTIONS and change my and my pets’ behaviours and ‘outdoor times.’
SOME pets ARE a bother in the neighborhood. And not everyone loves my pets. I don’t have a right to let my pets be a bother to others. While *I* might think “Chewy” is the sweetest and coolest Siamese cat in the world, I know for certain that my (Korean) neighbors DO NOT like it when he uses their ornamental flower garden for his rest stop.
Again, not to justify what she did, I am just saying that I can see why the woman might be a bit annoyed, to the point where she took (bad) action). I do wonder if she had ever asked her neighbor to control her pets’ behaviour.
Most cat owners that let their cat out at night do not care what their cat does. Otherwise they wouldn’t let them out at night.
Extremely inconsiderate and certainly being a bad neighbor.
Control your cats and bad stuff won’t happen to them.
Good post Blueflag.
Siamese cats our something else. Had one in my kid years, that old Tom use to come in from doing bad things to neighbor kittens (his most likely) and get into bed as I slept and would bite me in the chest with all claws digging in.
Would have nightmares about that old Tom.
I even nursed him back to health after the kid across the street put a bee bee in his hiney.
Idiot suppose to be my parents did not treat animals as in vet care ect...
I OTOH am a huge animal lover.
Labs for 25 years and now that I am older less agile I added a Dachsaund to the family.
Two Huge white Labs and the Preacher of the Choir the Doxie.
He will be one year in a few days.
He has been the sweetest most spoiled brat I ever had.
Funny thing though in the last few weeks his true Doxie personality has become very apparent.
I thought I dodged that bullet, um no. He has come of age. LOL
You're assuming the witch told the owners of the cats what they were doing.
