@983f49c9 my friend has got out of having to empty her cats litter tray because she’s pregnant. I grew up with pets, but I am somewhat in agreement with the article because I wouldn’t get a pet if I couldn’t give it a life it deserves. Our natural world is fubar. My focus is on helping wild creatures. I don’t see the point of humanising a pet with costumes and pet friendly Prosecco.

I was briefly involved in wildcat reintroduction, but it’s pointless with prolific unneutered domestic cats.
