My neighbours are really nice people, who, like a lot of really nice people, also keep cats. My kitten craps in their garden is no more a problem then their two cats crapping in my garden. We both are grown up adults and accept that s*** happens, and move on. No point being a crybaby over it and flinging the teddy(or the crap) out of the pram.

And a lot of nice people don't keep cats. Why should they have to deal with your failure to take responsibility for your pet?

I am taking responsibility for my cat, but cats unlike dogs cannot be leash trained, it is cruel, like making them eat vegetables or wear hats. Cats are not dogs and should not be thought of as such, rational and intelligent people know this. The law recognises this, why can't cat haters.

Gee, I'd never realised that cats aren't dogs, thanks for pointing that out. I assume that you believe dogs should go round in packs, seeing as you're so keen on "natural" behaviour?

Anyway, you don't take responsibility for your pet - you allow it to crap in your neighbours' gardens. Have you ever been round to your non cat-owning neighbours to offer to clean it up?

I just think it would be nice if cat-owners would check with their neighbours periodically, to see if their pet is causing a problem.

Which is exactly what our pussy-owning neighbours did with us. They apologised and offered to dispose of any waste and were happy when we had a dog that didn't like cats (or anything else in her territory).

If my dog shat on their front lawn, I'd pick it up.

Our neighbours all encourage ours to visit by feeding the scrounger...
