Title: Can't believe this happened in my Road !

I'd virtually decided to keep my cats indoors as they show no interest in going out. I always felt a bit cruel as all my other cats have gone out. Well this has just helped me make up my mind.  :censored:

Oh my god! Seriously what is going on with this country?! I'm paranoid about my two boys anyway but they go out in the daytime and I fetch them in at night. Three cats have been killed recently around here - two run over and one attacked by a dog. The RSPCA did nothing about the dog just told the owner to be more aware! The owner was a right psycho too. They hate being cooped up in the house though. If I leave them in I feel guilty that they are bored and if I let them out I worry about their safety. Dammed if I do, dammed if I don't! One of my boys likes to hide out in some hedges on the road behind mine so I quite often do a crazy cat woman routine and go and fetch him from the hedge and carry him home when its getting dark! I don't care, gives me peace of mind :)

The thing is there are quite few bad areas in St Leonards but I thought my road was one of the good ones. Just goes to show it can happen anywhere. Think I'm going to set up a cat woman's vigilante group. The police don't do much when it's an animal that's been hurt or killed.

My cats are all indoor cats, having lost one in an RTA and one die from poisoning, i refused to let them out. Luckily none of them mind, including those who were stray or feral previously. There are far too many cruel people out there  :'(
