How to Figure Out If a Cat Is a Stray

If you see a cat outside more than once and you are unsure if it is a stray I want to share a great technique for finding out. Simply take a piece of paper and fold it up, write your name and number on it along with instructions for the owner to call you when the cat arrives at home. You can tie it around the cat’s neck or attach a note to a makeshift collar. If you get a call you will know it has a home and if you see it again with the collar, chances are they are homeless. Many people are abandoning their companion animals during these tough economic times. They need our help. Thanks to Kelli from S.M.A.R.T. for sharing this idea with me.

Punish Those Who Attend Animal Fights

I think attending an animal fight should be a felony. Supporting something is not much different from doing it. If people did not attend dog/cock fights then they would not exist. Animals are forced to kill other animals to avoid their own deaths for human entertainment. It’s disgusting and barbaric. We need to punish the attendees.


In New York it is only a violation to attend a dog fight. Right now there is a bill that would make it a misdemeanor. Like I said, I wish it was a felony but this is a step in the right direction.

HELP DEER AVOID AN INHUMANE DEATH

Cayuga Heights Deputy Mayor Bea Szekely is planning a mass slaughter of deer using a method referred to as the “net and bolt” technique. The veterinary field is saying that the method is cruel and inhumane.


The “net and bolt” technique uses drop nets or rocket-propelled nets to grab groups of deer who often are thrown into the air and then have a metal rod shot into their heads. The deer scream and struggle to escape. The people who kill the deer are compensated per dead body. Male, female, babies, families, and herds all subject to this brutality.
