GET THIS! Boulder, CO trying to pass an ordinance to keep all cats indoors because they are killing some birds

Question

Welcome to the Peoples Republic of Boulder. OH the poor birdies! Why not just outlaw cats?

Answer 1

I have no more cats in my yard...I got tired of them on my truck hood, pooping in my plants...jumping up on my roof at night to get the birds...you know the birds that eat bugs...so now I trap em..shoot em,... dump they go....

Answer 2

Good idea

Answer 3

Cats should be kept indoors. They are unnatural predators to birds. Also, it is dangerous to your cat to let them cat roam around unsupervised. Also, I don't like to smell the spray from tom cats. Cats should be kept indoors or should be on leashes when outdoors.

Answer 4

This has been a problem in many places, especially places where there are protected birds and other small animals.  A cat is a predator.  A cat will not learn to not be a predator.  If there are protected animals being killed by cats then something should be done.  Your drastic measure is to just outlaw cats.  However, may pet owners would not agree to that one.  Heck, the pet food companies would probably spend quite a bit of money to fight a law like that.  Keeping the cats indoors would be the best solution in areas where this is an actual problem.

Answer 5

thats right up there with a new bill trying to pass on allowing 18yr olds to legally cary guns.  NO NO NO NO NO

Answer 6

I agree, cats should be kept indoors. My neighbors let their cats roam the neighborhood and I have claw marks on my cars paint to prove it. They c**p in my yard, kill birds, and they have loud crazy cat s*x outside my window at night. I use a live trap to catch them, then its straight to the SPCA with the furry little demons. The owners bail them out and never learn their lesson. Cats need to be kept indoors. You dont let dogs wander the neighborhood, why should we let cats?

Answer 7

LMAO!  What a joke.  Cat's have been killing birds forever.  We can't stop them now lol.
