Cats are clever buggers and in the main they are very selfish and know where to go to to get food and TLC, in all weathers they will seek out what they need --whether it is at your place or some other house with a catflap.

Dogs might be exclusive and loyal but Cats are good at exploiting matters for themselves.


Indeed. Cats can pretty well survive on their own. They just use humans for the convenience factor, i.e. shelter and food, but they don't need humans to survive. Most breed dogs though would struggle in the same situation.

Bollocks, my mainly house cat would be dead within a day if he had any sort of feral instinct in him.

My dad kept cats and they pretty well fended for themselves, being semi feral. You should have seen what they brought home. Anything like mice, rats, small rabbits, small pheasants, partridges, birds. You name it.

When food was short, they were fed well and they lived in an out house. They lived the life of Riley really. Best of both worlds.

I’m skimming through my visa application and not disappointed to see they’ve kept the questions :

Are you a member of any terrorist organisation?
Have you been involved in any war crimes or acts of genocide?

and

Is there anything in your history that would indicate you’re not a person of good character?

:gigglesnshit: So they’re relying on people who’ve done these things to just fess up and admit it? Fear not taxpayers, your money is being put to good use uncovering the baddies.
