He doesn't understand that he is turning his property into killing
ground. We stopped feeding the birds due to the fact that our female
Beagle kept catching and killing the birds. Also, our yard is now a no
squirrel zone, when the other squirrels saw one of their own being
caught and eaten by the same female Beagle they got the idea that our
yard was not the place to be.

Our chipmunk family living under our front steps was resolved by the
foxes. One chipmunk is a snack but a whole family of chipmunks is a
meal. And, our neighborhood has no stray cats either. The foxes have
taken care of that problem.

If you are truly concerned about the animals you would not put out food
where it does not naturally occur nor water where it is not naturally
found. All yo are doing is creating a buffet for the local predators.


Can we trade dogs for a few days? Mine can't seem to catch a squirrel.

I don't think you really want this one. She is the reason that female
dogs are called bitches.

We don't allow our housepets outside. The only time they go outdoors is

Why are you denying your animals the ability to experience nature. Or,
have they told you they like sitting at the window watching the world go
by just like prisoners do?


Our pets live long, happy, healthy lives, without concern over their
next meal, or where to stay warm and dry, and safe from being hit by
cars on nearby roads or shot by morons with guns. The roads down here
are littered with the carcasses of deer, raccoons, dogs, foxes, cats, et
cetera.

Our pet Maine coon cat, for example, a kitty we rescued from the
outdoors, decided in one day he never wanted to go outdoors again. If he
is near a door that leads to the outside and it is opened, he runs in
the other direction. This is a tough cat, by the way, who is very strong
with great teeth and claws. Though he is just a cat, he knows he's got
it made with us, and has no need for a short, dangerous life outside.

One of our neighbors down the street had a pretty Springer spaniel they
allowed out in their fenced yard. The dog dug his way out, to
"experience nature," as you termed it, and was found dead by the side of
a nearby road two days later. What he experienced was getting hit by a
car or truck.

No thanks.

Sounds like you raise your cats like your parents raised you, sitting in
the house all day far away from the dangerous world.

Both my wife and I enjoy watching the little creatures, and I don't

animals don't care, why should you?

As long as you are honest that you are just doing this for your own
enjoyment there is no problem. Just do not think you are helping the
animals.
My mother had birds that she fed all the time too. I think the saddest
scene I have seen was her pet white egret, standing outside her door
after she died. If he can't find someone else to feed him, he may be
joining her soon. He had totally forgotten how to fish and there may
not really even be a suitable place for him to fish around there.
Most people who feed sea birds are feeding them an unnatural diet that
will hasten their death anyway.


You are responding to the id spoofer, greg.

I don't shoot animals.

As long as you and the little woman get your jollys altering the lifestyles of the forest creatures for your own twisted pleasure, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks, right?
It doesn't matter who Greg responded to, his message was to you. You should pay attention.

If we alter their natural feeding habitat or feed them an unhealthy
diet, why should we care? There are plenty of new animals to take their
place. We feed them so we can take photos to show our friends.

Theyr'e on the move Greg. Yep -to the power plant.


I was at the DEP office Friday for my water quality QA and I talked to
one of the biologists. She says when they do necropsy in the winter
they are finding manatee with undigested grass still in their throats.
The literally freeze while they are eating if they venture away from
the power plant. If they stay there they starve.

Yeah we are really "saving them".

The crime is heating the water.

Gee, on that note, I suppose I should ask my wife to shut off the
"birdbath" water heater she runs outdoors all winter, so that passing
birds have unfrozen water to drink.

If you broke into our house some night and brought your dog with you,
the dog would still be alive.
