LETTER

Oh no, not cats again!

 

How long are you going to fight over this cats issue? Until 2017? It’s been going on since mid-February! I think everything has been said on this subject. Each is stuck on his or her own opinion, without possibility of compromise, to a point of suggesting using rubber bullets on a cat. Give me a break! Here is a real example of the “Two solitudes”. How can we aspire to peace in this world if we are not able to get along with our neighbours over such small questions? Please! Lay off the cats! The groundhogs are already out of their holes… the raccoons are going to wake up soon and both will be ready to destroy your garden! So why don’t you buy the Lee Valley efficient “CatStop” ultrasonic device “that sends waves repulsing cats and little predators.” Lend it to your neighbour (as I did myself), and, instead of war, you’ll create peace!

Otherwise, we will have to ask the government to create a gun registry with a section on arms against cats and also ask for a commission of inquiry on abused, missing and murdered cats. (And by the way, when will I see an article on  “The solitude of walking your dog”?)
