Cats are vectors for more than one disease which afflict
humans. They actually ought to be classified as vermin.

Following Sacha's hysterical tirade in response to my post about what the
dreadful things cats are,

I thought she was quite restrained considering how often you posted
the same rubbish.


I decided to look on Google. Put 'Hate Cats'
into Google and just see how much the things 'are' hated. See for yourself
Sacha, I have not put those in, they are from different like minded people.

Commonly described as obsessive nutters.

The Isle of Wight would be an excellent place for an experimental

hate cats produces 546,000 results

hate mike produces 1,200,000 results

I think the cats win that one.

May I suggest you then try to form uk.rec.hatecats as a seperate news
group then if demand is that high.

Indeed. Many things are hated. In many cases this says more about the
haters than the hatees. http://stop-the-hate.org/.

A search for 'hate Mike' suggests that several Mikes are also among the
hated of this world.

Bit slow there old chappie, we have a Tiger breeding Zoo which is very well
known and respected ;-) Not too much trouble in getting a breeding programme
started for some more 'real' cats as you suggest. Take it up with Jack
Corney, Sandown Zoo, Culver Parade, Sandown Isle of Wight. Bound to have a
web site, take a peek.

Kind regards

Mike

It's untrue that cats are vermin


They shit everywhere, rip open rubbish bags to scavange, screech all night,
danage car paintwork and breed all over the place as well as carry disease.

What part of "vermin" do you not understand?

Rat poison doesn't work. Something is put in it to discourage cats from eating
it.

It is high time these disgusting things were licensed and/or dedicated bait
made for them.

Why is it legal to poison rats with rat poison, but not
cats? Surely if
it
is a humane way to dispatch rats, it is a humane way to
kill cats.


Both vermin.

I think that most human diseases are spread by humans....

CATS ARE NOT VERMIN.

A dictionary definition of vermin:
Various small animals or insects, such as rats or cockroaches, that are
destructive, annoying, or injurious to health.

Cats are destructive.
Several people in URG are annoyed by them.
Their feces contain deseases.

Cockroaches aren't destructive or injurious to health. There's no reason
they should even be annoying.

Lots of things ARE annoying though ... (see below)

Lack of parental control

and the cat lovers need not come back on that one. I have three daughters
and a son, they had parental control and have turned out to be four children
I am proud off. Qualifications, Degrees, Professional status, they have the
lot.

We have three sons and two daughters and the same applies to all of them.
Even as teenagers we were proud of them, they were a credit to themselves.
Some said we gave them too much freedom, some said we were too strict, we
have no regrets because they turned out far happier and more responsible
than the children of our critics.
