          Searched for a minute (ok, two), but couldn't find it to watch. :-( Probably a good thing. Though thinking about it, I don't know why feeding your furry rat to a snake is 'meh' - but when it's your furry kitten it deserves gaol!? Meanwhile, the government stooge hunting to gaol that person probably eats roast veal, crackled pork, and - gasp! - cute baby chickens!!! (eggs) for breakfast - government hypocrites should be gaoling themselves first… at least they know where themselves are. ;-p

          Unlikely for Trump to pardon him, Trump's already got a lot of pressing issues and letting him go would make his subordinates look gutless.

        Cats live up to ~16 years afaik
        and this is a very generous estimate because they live fine for a bit and then everything starts failing and cancers pop up so realistically you'll only be able to live with senior cats for a few years at best

          They are relatively cheap until they get old, then expensive.

          If say they cost $4000 in their final years

          • payton on 29/10/2019 - 20:27

            @itshammer: yes, as the cat gets into geriatric age, likelihood of old age ailments (and costs) comes into play.
            very old cats can't groom well or go to the toilet cleanly, thus the owner will need to deal with washing the cat's fur regularly, or the smell of pee and poop will stick to them

    The RSPCA does fantastic work but remember if you get a cat, make sure it stays indoors where possible and that it at least has a bell on it. Too much wildlife gets destroyed by domestic cats in Australia.

    • troyww on 27/10/2019 - 23:20

        Only a good cat with a bell can stop a bad cat with a bell killing wildlife.

        We need more bells.

          Cats don't just hunt birds… Cats aren't native here. They shouldn't be outside.

        • Hintswen on 28/10/2019 - 07:49

          That would make them effective though, just not 100% effective.

    • Funky Moose on 28/10/2019 - 19:11

      While pet cats do kill a lot of birds, they only represent about 2% of the annual bird deaths in Australia. That would be about as deadly as cars were to humans in the 1980s. It is hardly an ecological disaster.

      If you are worried about birds, pet cats are not the problem. Feral cats might be, representing approx. 15% of bird deaths a year. But I would suggest general environmental damage, habitat loss (including cutting down that tree that was filling your gutters with leaves or blocking your solar panels) and climate change represent the primary threat to our bird population.

      By all means, keep your cat inside, it is safer and fractionally better for the environment. But if you feel your cat would be happier if let outside it is not going to cause the collapse of of the Australian ecology. Anecdotally, that has certainly been the case with several rescue cats I have known - I assume because they lived outside at one point.

        It's still an American thing because they're the ones that go crazy over it. It's really cringy trying to bring it here. But that doesn't stop greedy retail who smells a few $ trying to shove it down Australians' throats since the 1970s. Meanwhile, most of the junk for it in supermarkets continues to go unsold and into landfill every year.

          • GregMonarch on 28/10/2019 - 14:50

            @Dagwood-Dog: Exactly. Australians taking on halloween is like Americans taking on 2-up or saying 'Gidday' instead of 'Y'all'. It's just weird - like the socially-inept uncle who can't see he makes everyone cringe at family gatherings.

        • funnysht on 28/10/2019 - 09:14

          it's coz retail love it when consumers spend money on useless crap each year on it.

          best way to get back at them is to just reuse each year.

      Actually, I was reading a dog forum a few years ago (in the USA I think it was), that there's a growing trend among professional breeders NOT to vaccinate. I read many in the group who had switched to not vaccinating, claiming they saw the high rate of cancer occurrence in their animals drop to virtually zero. I also recall some of them mentioning they observred a reduction in various other problems, such as hip displacement and early onset of arthritis. Makes you wonder.

      • miarn on 28/10/2019 - 17:58

          Erm… if professional breeders (who see a much larger sample size of births, deaths, and health problems than you or I in our multi-decade human families) are saying cancers and other serious health problems are disappearing once they stop vaccinating their animals… perhaps it's the other group that are the real idiots.
