Is Your Cat a Floosie?

Do you "let your cat out?" Does she occasionally get overly affectionate and roll about seductively? Does she hang-out with an undesirable lot of feisty aggressive Toms who yowl and hiss and fight through the wee hours? Does she disappear for long periods and come back with a suspicious smirk on her face? Is she spayed?

Yes? Yes? Yes? Yes? And No?

Then you are the owner of a feline floosie. A dubious distinction indeed, for her. And for you.

Why? Because cats breed like rabbits. That's why. An uncontrolled mating pair will beget 12 cats in a year, which will beget 66 cats in two years, thus begetting 382 cats in three years, thence 2,000 cats in four years, 73,000 in seven years, and thereby begetting-gasp-80 million cats in only 10 years.

Result? Inevitable suffering for millions of our friendly, fluffy, friends. Homelessness. Starvation. Disease. And death from cars, larger animals, pranksters, and more.

You can help stop these generations of suffering. Have your female spayed. Your male neutered. Don't allow litters.
