Belgium has one cat for every ten people!

http://www.missionvalleycondos.infoBelgium recently announced that it is planning to sterilize most cats by 2016. Apparently, Belgium is being overrun by feral cats. With a population of about ten million people, there are estimates that there are about one million cats, or one wild cat for every ten people!

Unfortunately, no cat is to be spared, with the first sterilizations being carried out at animal shelters and then breeding establishments and pet shops. Later stages of the sterilization plan have mandatory sterilization for domestic cats and listing in a national identification registry.

No word on penalties and fines for not having your cat sterilized, and pedigreed cats will be excluded. Wouldn't that mean that those people who breed pedigreed cats would have a monopoly and cause the price of cats to go up?

I have two cats (or rather, 2 cats have me). 

I have owned many, many cats over the years.  All of them were "strays".   Every time I go to the Veterinarian, or to PetsMart, or drive by the Animal Pound, there are countless more cats Begging to be taken "Home".

Please, SPAY or NEUTER your Pets!

Apparently they are my kind of people.  I can't have cats anymore because of my kids allergies so I totally spoil my clients cats.  Of course I have to change clothes the minute I walk into my house but it is worth it.
