Funkenhouser's House of Kittens

[Richmond B. Funkenhouser]

Weird toilet behavior means an upset cat. That's just how cats are. Cat owners need to know that. If you don't want to deal with it, you should give the cat to someone who does. Please.

The cat lives outside... where cats are meant to live.

dude all the ignorance as well as racism in this thread is alarming.
our educational system needs help. wow.

Wow is right.. you fucking people are crazy. The cat shit in the bed and I put it outside. For fucks sake.. You people need to stop being so damn stupid.

 

[Richmond B. Funkenhouser]

And foriegn people eat other foods.. Its not racism its fact. You need to be educated..

 

[Richmond B. Funkenhouser]

I knew there would be some triggering here.. but damnit man, with people like this, we'll damn near deserve it when the rest of the world eats our lunch.

When I adopted my cat, I signed an agreement that I would not declaw it and that I would not let it outdoors. Outdoors means diseases and bird predation, among other things. If you think cats "belong" outdoors, you need to give that cat away to someone who knows and wants cats. Again, please. I see nothing in your post indicating why you want to keep the cat anyway. You are not doing yourself or the cat any favors by hanging on to it.

WOW. Animals that shit on your children's bed belong outside. If you let animals shit in your child's bed you should be forced to give them away.

I see lack of clear minded informed rationality here. You are well capable of educating yourself. Google it. Why are you keeping the cat anyway?

Because It's my cat. Because I made a commitment to feed the thing.. and its perfectly legal and common to have outside cats. I see you as the irrational one. What gives you the right? Who made you cat sheriff?

I don't need google to tell me how to have a cat.. people had cats thousands of years before google.

I googled that just to make sure, and the fact-checkers told me it's a conspiracy theory.

Uh, what?

Uh, what?

Yup. Outdoor cats live 2 to 5 years. Indoor cats average 16.

Then the ones I've had were lucky as hell.

This statistic likely applies to any wild animal. Does that mean they “belong” inside?

I happen to like animals. I also happen to think that people are going to keep them as pets, they should do so responsibly, which means being informed. I'd just as soon keep a dog outdoors as I would a cat.

Well, would you keep a free-roaming dog outside? Or even in a fenced yard (Huskies excepting?)

Of course.

Would you keep a wolverine in your bedroom?

I like cats too.. did you read about how I have 6 of them. Even that doesn't make me a cat sheriff.

yes I had one for 15 years. No fence.. no chain. Its kind of beautiful when you stop and think about it. She was a springer.. Sunshine was her name.

Of course.

I thought we were talking about domesticated pets. I mean, I'd keep Funk outside but not a pet cat.
