Sadly Magic has disappeared. He is now neutered and chipped. Plz keep him in and message me or ring 07840 544739 if you find him. Thanks.

Not having a cat neutered is irresponsible - there are too many cats in shelters in need of a home without people letting their cats create yet more.Ra Ra Ra said:Blimey I'm glad I don't live in Castletown I would be too scared to let my cat out people like you stealing them it has prob gone home and some poor family are going to find their loving pet has been castrated and microchipped!
Yes not having YOUR ( as in your OWN)pets castrated is irresponsible agreed!henryscat said:Not having a cat neutered is irresponsible - there are too many cats in shelters in need of a home without people letting their cats create yet more.Ra Ra Ra said:Blimey I'm glad I don't live in Castletown I would be too scared to let my cat out people like you stealing them it has prob gone home and some poor family are going to find their loving pet has been castrated and microchipped!
You've done the right thing - glad you've given him a home.lisapearcestafford said:1. Magic the cat has returned to us.
2. He was on the streets for at least a week and was starving.
3. He was not chipped and not castrated.
4. His previous owners obviously didn't care for him properly.
5. All attempts possible made to see if he had been reported missing. Cats protection, vets, Sadpals etc.
6. Sought advice from vet before neutering & chipping.
Be responsible if you keep pets.
I don't "steal" anything
Totally agree - the ideal solution would be to find the owners, but Lisapearce has tried to do that, and failing to find them, has done the best thing in my opinion.Glam said:Read what Lisapearce has put, the cat was on the streets for at least a week and was starving, what was she supposed do? Shut the door on the poor thing,let it die? possibly get run over? .....
Animal shelters don't put healthy animals to sleep, but some struggle with the numbers of animals they have to re-home. If you can give the cat a home rather than send it to a shelter then that's preferable in my mind.tek-monkey said:Send it to a shelter - no known owner so probably be killed?
Animal shelters do not put healthy animals to sleep. I rather suspect that if they did, people would not wish to donate money to them.tek-monkey said:Surely there is a tipping point where there is not enough money to support the cats?
