Petah Tikva to open first cat park to contain, house stray felines
The park will have food and water dishes, playing grounds, and will be under supervision of the local council's veterinary services.
By JERUSALEM POST STAFF
August 29, 2019


In a hot country like Israel, many people feed stray cats.

Loved by many, cats are actually hunters. As their numbers grow they often kill birds and other small creatures they can get their paws on. In addition, they reproduce, meaning their numbers become very large.

The city of Petah Tikva will now open a state of the art park for felines, Walla news reported. Created in dialogue with pro-cat activists and vets, the goal is that humans will begin feeding the cats in this specific location. The cats, after enjoying their meals, will opt to stay in the space meant for them so they won't roam and hunt anymore or be run over.

I talked to one woman and she talked about "cat sanctuaries", this sounds like that idea.  I know some rescue people. Not easy work.

I have found cats to be excellent companions, sometimes far better than many people I know.  At least when I have a conversation with a cat, he or she doesn't argue with me and cats usually don't interrupt.

Probably all true...but for that purpose, a cat is still just a more arrogant, selfish version of a dog!

Dang, y'all. I'm not even a cat person and I can't find anything funny about violence (implied or otherwise) toward an animal. I'm scratching my head trying to figure out what could possibly be amusing about such a dark suggestion.  :shrug:

I prefer the talented Lab and cute little pug over the tarantula.

@austingirl

I have been too afraid to open this thread since that post. What a relief to see @Right_in_Virginia's beautiful dog photo.

The ignore feature has served me well, but I didn't know that I needed it for that particular boardster.
