I went to disagree untill I remembered there's a ginger cat that lives on my property that I feed sometimes

[–] teije9@lemmy.blahaj.zone -1 points 4 days ago (3 children)

please don't feed it unless you know for sure it's homeless (there are paper bands you can hang around their necks on which you can put your info so that the owner can call you if it's their cat). if the cat has a owner then you're making the cat too fat, probably buying the wrong food which will give it liver disease, and being fed 2 different foods can cause bowel problems. Please stop.

If the cat has an owner, that owner is letting them outside knowing the risks of eating what the cat isn't supposed to, as well as killing what it isn't supposed to.

Imma feed him when he comes in and screams at me everytime because I like him and he's cool.

[–] teije9@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

you can, but please know you're probably removing 3 years from its life.

please just hang a paper band around his neck with 'are you the owner of this cat? call me' on it.

so you'd rather just poison a cat?

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 1 points 4 days ago

You're making a lot of assumptions based off nothing.

Isn't it weird how some people care more about cats than people or, often, themselves?

[–] teije9@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

that's how well they manipulate us

More of a dog guy but I get it, I get it. I love their dumb stupid little faces.

Differences (well, stupid little faces, if I think in some dog types..)

Dog - "oh, he gives me food, love, care and a house, he must be a god"

Cat - "oh, he gives me food, love, care and a house, I must be a god"
