This isn’t so much a “bitch” as a heads-up –
Most anyone living in the Agricola St. area knows who I mean by Elle, the lovely fluffy kitty who frequently roams the street. I don’t know exactly which home is hers, but I do know she has one. However, my question is this – why do you leave your kitty outside in the pouring rain? Saturday night I came home and found Elle outside my doorstep, as I often do. She tried desperately to come inside, but that would have caused havoc for our three cats. We left her some food, which she scarfed down – hungry lady.
This isn’t the first time we’ve found her outside late at night during bad weather. Obviously she’s a pretty independent cat, but her pleas to come in our house suggest to me that she would have been much happier inside that rainy night. It breaks our heart when she’s outside crying in the rain – please let your kitty back in!

Yeah, that just broke my heart a little bit. All cats should be kept indoors at all times.
You should be kept indoors at all times.
Another story about lousy, irresponsible pet owners. Jesus this topic or these people really grind my gears. If someone can find out who this shitty and I mean shitty pet owner is, report the miserable fuck to the SPCA, and have the cat removed from the home and put up for adoption to a family that deserves it.
the problem stems from the fact that many cat owners believe their felines have the right to roam free at all times. if we had as many roving dogs around as we do cats, thered be many more wet kitties around.
Irresponsible pet owners. I hate people who mistreat animals. 🙁

“I am a poor,wet kitty with irresponsible owners… please may I have some tuna?”
if/when they ever get/let the cat back in, they’ll get the point.
I hate this and bad pet owners. Idiot teenagers should stop getting kittens or kitties they won’t want to care for a year after they’re no fun. You all deserve a toilet full of shit, no food to eat, and the door to your home closed and locked on you on the stormiest of nights.
Irresponsible pet ownership is not simply the domain of teenagers. One only need look at the pittance of animal cruelty charges each year (read “not enough fucking charges and little in the way of punishment”) to see that assholes range from near birth to death in age.
what gets me is that hundreds, maybe even thousands of cat owners in the hrm area will let their cats roam around outside with no idea as to where their pets are. i think they should be kept on fucking leashes. if i have to have my dog on leash in the city, so should be every fucking cat!
Just wondering what is the latest with Elle? I hope she is having a better life than before.
