Plus they're girl cats - they don't roam because they don't like boys and have no incentive to seek them out.
:scenario: your four boys were small and played in the yard, one was brutally attacked by a pit and severely injured. You called AC, they get dog, dog is back in X days. Your little boys want to play in the yard, pit owner refuses to control his dog. Your little boys cannot play in THEIR OWN yard. This scene is repeated 4 times..... You mean to tell me you're not going to make that dog disappear?
If you say "no", I say I don't believe you.
I can only speculate why she waited. Based on her posts, she was in no hurry, she really didn't want to harm the preggo #####, she didn't have a kitten at the time but was contemplating getting one. Maybe she just waited for the right moment. I don't know. She can chime in with her response.With regards to this scenario, the dog would have been shot dead by me in front of the owner at the moment of the first attack, or shortly after my return from getting my child medical treatment.
I kinda get where lovin's coming from. Why did Bailey wait so long to take action against this animal? Why let it live on to potentially terrorize her beloved pets some more, BREED, HAVE THE PUPS (who could potentially turn out like their mother and attack her beloved pets yet again), only to THEN take the dog down sneakily. I'd have handled it post-haste, in front of the owner and dared them to retaliate, especially if it had attacked my pet or child on the first occassion.
The old saying goes, once they get that taste of first blood, they will continue to crave it.
what if neighbors child killed the cat NOT their dog and after repeated pleas, they still let this child run free. Is it then okay to kidnap kid and take matter into your own hands?

I think anyone who would plan and execute the killing of an animal has a few screws loose. There's a big difference of killing an animal in self defense or even in defense of an animal that is being attacked at that moment, but to take the time to come up with an elaborate plan for kidnapping and killing an animal is just a smidge disturbing.
My girls don't roam. :shrug:
I think they go outside just to annoy you. "meow, let me out" "meow meow, let me in". Repeat every 30 seconds.
And then they get a sucker like Jani B or one of you all who will get up and be their doorman.
YES! Those animal killing kids grow up to be Jeffrey Dahmer, so it's best to nip that crap in the bud.
Promise icecream for everybody!

Neutered males don't either.
: Sounds like Brandy, she literally runs in the house to only run to the front door or if coming in the front she immediately runs through the house to go to backdoor. Its like she uses the house as her big cutthrough. I tell her - you just came in!! She sits there looking at the door intently ready to bolt thinking she can will the door open any minute, I feel sorry for her and don't ruin for her.
Claudia and Gidgie are content to sit and meow and be annoying. Kiki gets hysterical, like it's an EMERGENCY that she either be let out or let in RIGHT NOW!
