Sometimes it feels like Greenpoint is the capital of Lost Kitty-land, or perhaps where all Internet cats go to retire. It doesn’t take long to find a lamp post covered with layers of lost cat posters, old ones getting covered up by new ones.  It feels as though our fine little northern Brooklyn neighborhood is overrun with free kittens, feral cats and locals looking for their lost furry friends.
Ever wonder how this happens? How…

  1. Rule #1 of pet-ownership: If the pet is smarter than you are you shouldn’t be allowed to keep it. E.g., someone being dumber than a Black-Mamba snake keeping those for pets and they too escape confinement for being smarter than their keeper.

    I’ve noticed this anomaly with cat-owners. Nearly all of them are dumber than a cat. Think carefully now … what does it mean when a cat can “OUTSMART” you and get outside? I hope this isn’t too difficult for you to think about. Is that question hurting your brain?

    If a cat escapes from an owner’s safe and supervised confinement then it only proves that that cat is smarter than the human, OR that they really didn’t care about that clearly expendable cat in the first place. This also proves they are too stupid to keep ANY pet responsibly. Not even fish. Because this is how African Cichlids got into the Everglade canals, and Eurasian Watermilfoil got into all our waterways — from pet-fish owners who were being just as astoundingly stupid and criminally irresponsible as these invasive-species-cat owners.

    So you are doing these people and any future animals that they stop adopting a huge favor by destroying their clearly expendable cat for them as humanely as possible. Otherwise that animal of theirs would cruelly suffer to death under the wheels of a car, or being poisoned, or attacked by other cats or animals, die of wounds, diseases, etc. You will be showing them that you actually care more about the humane treatment of their pet than they do — by destroying it humanely before it can die inhumanely under their criminally irresponsible care.
