  • Not in Ottawa here… Cats lives outdoor normally and really doesn’t suffer from that.

    As for local fauna, well, yeah, but again cats have been living here for centuries and its pretty difficult to say that cats are not “local fauna” at this point.

    To be honest, I would like my cats to KILL rats and mice instead of bringing them inside alive to play and then forget about them… But this is another story.

    Human hunters to much more harm than cats around here. They even kill people sometimes. I would like to stop them more than stop cats from going outside.

    Note: I own 4 dogs and 2 cats. The cats have a catflap and spend most of their time outside, since they are big enough to avoid being eaten by crows or foxes. I have even seen one cat walk side by side with a fox once. The dogs also are hunters and far more dangerous thab the cats as they killed, so far: three young boars, two young deer’s, a couple of rabbit nests and I had twice already to jump in a dog-fox fight and separate the contenders letting the fox run away…

    So…



  • I am pretty sure cats dont “belong” inside at all.

    They are wild animals, partially domesticated but much much more wild than dogs. Dogs don’t survive much without us, cats do, and even thrive in the correct climate (remember they come from warm climates, we brought cats all over the world).

    Whether we messed up bringing a ferocious predator with superior physical capabilities all around the world and destroying local fauna (Australia, and such places…) It’s not cats fault and doesn’t mean they belong inside.

    In fact, cats belong outside and just take advantage of our “inside” unless they are kept captives on purpose.

    Hi!

    I remember I had issues in setting it up. IIRC there was a problem with a too long URL that you where supposed to copy & paste in the browser… And I took me a few tries until I figured that out.

    Beside this, I don’t remember if that was the same issue…

    Maybe you can post the full trace (with redacted credentials)?

    You can pm me of course
