I am glad I am not the only one who is preaching about keeping cats indoors. Things are not the same in the world today as they were when I was little - although when I was only 9 my very special kitty Whisper was killed by a car and I have never gotten over that he left us that way when we were supposed to keep him safe. Another cat disappeared after I moved out from my parent's house but they still let their cats out - I did not. And I promise you my cats are very happy and loved even though they are indoor cats. There really are too many dangers outside - please think about this: we don't open the door and let the dog out to run free and expect them to get home safe so why do we do this to a much smaller and fragile animal??? Very often they get hit by cars, poisoned by neighbors, attacked by other animals, abused by kids - need I say more. Your Buzz saved you (as my cats have saved me) so please save Buzz from the often cruel outdoors and you will have his love for much longer.





Please have your pets sterilized as soon as possible to lower, and one day hopefully eliminate, unwanted and abandoned pets. It IS our responsibility. Adopting from a shelter also helps - encouraging breeders just adds to the overpopulation.
