Interesting article about cats and their lives

[Berkut]

To echo what Tricky said about cats not being 'chattels' we'r responsiblefor , over here a fair section of the population don't regard their cats as belonging to them, it's quite common for cats themselves to move home and go live with the neighbours and this is generally accepted.

Maybe it's a cultural norm that cats are regarded as free spirits rather than as more like possession as in parts of North America ?

IN Texas that would be enough for you to go your neighbors & kill them all to get back your belongings.

So if my cat wanders into my neighbors house at night, by law in Texas I can just open up on their house, right?

I mean, they've stolen my property at night, so they are fair game.

That's how I read it. It's your property, they stole it. Death is the only option.
