    You still wouldn't see the results before cats stopped dying.

    Is that really true about sex-ed though? I never heard that argument before. My sex-ed classes certainly didn't discuss abuse, is this a new (last 15 years) thing?

    Don't worry, if the stop selling poisonous anti-freeze we can still kill cats by using aspirin.

    Why? I love cats - I have 4 of them. But a debate will achieve nothing. Why not spend the money on extra policing?

    Miss Marple could solve the case of the Missing Moggies....
    I hate cat, but surely antifreeze won't improve the taste?

    Like those bunch of thickos will come up with anything. They might as well debate that weird bang the DM reported on.

    The cat likes you. Next thing you know they will be leaving you "presents".

    I SO agree with you vwdan! MPs should be debating (humane) ways to keep poxy cats out of our gardens! Let's get some perspective on our current problems. Do EU migrants continually wander down my garden path scaring the birds and crapping on my lawn? No they do not! Come on UKIP, cut to the important issues, tell us what you would do about bloody cats!

    PS Not that I'd mind a pig doing that obviously.
    PPS Only a female pig obviously, I ain't a pervert.

    The fact you bothered to write on this thread likely means you are a cat lover.
