  • "Basically Cleo…..neither did you!! What do you think “After suffering with a bad back and having major surgery, I now have metal clips in my spine. Any kind of dirt is a problem.” means then eh?!!?
    The letter writer then goes on to state “they are free spirits and go where they want and there is nothing we can do about that” clearly indicating that her cats are left to roam, so you think they only cr@p in the litter tray?!?!? Usually blinkered view their cleo!
    Ohh and by the way, I would soooooo love for you to live next to me! “I would own at least 6 cats and let them roam just to annoy you!”…..i would own 6 dogs and leave them out all day just to annoy you!!! I also have a love for heavy metal music :D
    Enjoy the sunshine!!!"

Cats aren’t pests – they are free spirits

12:55pm Thursday 24th May 2012 in Letters

IN reply to Nancy Ridings letter in the Guardian, April 26.

I am glad she doesn’t dislike animals.

Like her I to have had many pets, some of them cats and some of them very clever. I would never look on any of them as pests because they have been such good company and friends since I’ve lived on my own.

My cats use a litter tray which I clean and I don’t mind because I love them and it would be lonely without them.

After suffering with a bad back and having major surgery, I now have metal clips in my spine.

Any kind of dirt is a problem.

But what can we do about cats – they are free spirits and go where they want and there is nothing we can do about that.

I can still tell you about things to put in your garden that you might not know about Nancy.
