Both of my cats are inside cats and have never been outside.
However, what if you applied the same rules to children? Should we shoot them with bb guns if they wander over the property line? Heaven forbid that they may step on a plant and damage the garden. Oh the horror!

Except she is litigious and you can expect too many people who ought to know better entertaining her ideas...

[Idaho Whacko]

Yup.

We have a bunch of whining, liberal crybabies here too.

This is obviously an out of control thug teen-ager, committing a heinous HATE CRIME. LOL

How dare he do the same things I would do if I lived next door to the Wicked Witch of the West.

The Old Biddy ought to be sanctioned by the court for "Frivolous suit" violations.

Once a child is 4 years old you can really communicate with them and they can really communicate with you, real feedback. If my kids do something wrong, it's my fault and I will take responsibility for it. I have told my neighbors that if they see my kids doing something wrong, to yell at them, and let me know so I can deal with them accordingly. Your pets never get beyond the intelligence of a toddler and can't really communicate with you other than letting you know they are hungry. If you really think you have anything more than a feeder/eater relationship with your pet, your sadly mistaken.
This thread is about an elderly lady who tried to let her neighbors know what was going on. The parents did the right thing in getting rid of the cat. Now they need to deal with bratty 14 year old.

[rock58seg]

No, But he is one of the Knights who say "Knicht."

"Your pets never get beyond the intelligence of a toddler and can't really communicate with you other than letting you know they are hungry"

That is exactly why they deserve to be shot with bb guns right? Brilliant.

Meowing is too good. I would have hissed at her.

Did you hear about the snake that was so poor, he didn't have a pit to hiss in?

[Dixie Yooper]

rubbing a dogs nose in it's fesses to house break it isn't exactly what the dog deserves either, but it works.
What do you think a cat hiding under my bird feeder has in mind for the birds? The cat is getting off lucky if it only gets stung by a bb.

Actually it's the German word for no, Nicht, Pronounced nich, They are doing a number on words that start with the silent K,

Ie: knife, knee, knight, all those KN... words until we get to good old Knut, (canute).

Maybe we should shoot retarded people as well since they don't know any better.

Agree. I have the most inconsiderate neighbors ever. Their cat uses our yard for a latrine. They leave their back lights on all night and are so loud outside that our dog is frightened to go outside. Their attitude is 'tough, it's my yard and house and I'll do what I want'. We don't have a front yard, just a forecourt in front. The rest of my neighbors have taken to returning this neighbor's 3 dog's droppings to their own front porch. This would be a much nicer place if they just left, nobody around is on speaking terms with them anymore. I feel sorry for this lady. She should be able to have piece of mind in her own domicile. And 14-year-old boys can be really bratty.

[originalbuckeye]

One more thing. When we try to enjoy our back yard their dogs come over to the fence and bark until we are forced to go in. I have taken to shooting them with a hard stream of water from the hose. This usually works.

[rock58seg]

O.K. I could buy into Nie, the Germanic word for never. Remember Monty Python & co. loved to spoof the Teutonic, especially with English being a Germanic language.

[Texan5]

Granted, the cat owner can't have cared that much for their pet if they wouldn't let it live indoors and have a litter box-but the neighbor is obviously trying to perpetrate a frivolous lawsuit. Surely an adult can ignore a kid meowing at them, for heaven's sake.

Any vet will tell you that rubbing a dog's nose in it's feces is NOT the proper way to housebreak them-it is cruel and will not encourage your pet to love you, but only fear you. I never did such a thing to my dog, and she is housebroken perfectly.

[Lucky9teen]

Meow I just have to say thanx for that. I really needed a good hearty laugh today. :)

[ShadowDancer]

I never did that to either of my dogs, either, and my last one I got at seven weeks and by eight and a half weeks he was completely house broken.

My older brother used to "meow" at his beautiful young highschool chemistry teacher back in the late 50's.
