We as a country just love our pets! They’re our best friends, our exercise buddies, companions, and even help us to get sick less often… With a higher population of pets than humans in the country, it’s worth knowing a thing or two about how we relate…

In Europe in the Middle Ages cats were associated with witches and were killed . As a result rodents with their fleas brought on the Plague, which killed great numbers of humans. Perhaps the state sponsored killing of cats in Australia will bring the Plague to Australia!! Perhaps the slautter of cats should be reconsidered!!!
Interesting thought. But I think the plague has been eradicated. Unfortunately wild cats wreak havoc on our native animals.
I find it interesting that in Unted States dogs are welcomed in National Parks but here in Australia they are forbidden. Yet it’s ok to go bush bashin in 4WD destroying habitat as you go. Seems a cockeyed way of protecting nature to me.
Yes Julie, we agree!
