I am just frustrated at the moment and need a place to vent. It irks me to no end when people get rid of their cats for behaviors that could have been prevented with simply neutering them early. My niece is on her second cat, the first one they gave away because it was getting aggressive with their young kids. (This wasn't related to not neutering, just not teaching their kids the proper way to treat pets.) Now on her second cat she told me nonchalantly that she made a deal with her husband she could get a bunny if she got rid of the cat! I asked why she wanted to get rid of it over a bunny and she said the cat has started peeing on everything. It's 8 or 9 months old, I asked if she had it fixed and the answer was no. I told her, that I've always gotten my cats neutered before they were 6 months old and NEVER had an issue with spraying. I feel so bad for the cat that it was taken to the SPCA. I already have 4 inside and 3 outside, or I would have taken it.
My other frustration is that their dog gets to stay despite many behavioral issues, she has complained about. Okay so she's obviously not a cat person like me...so why keep getting cats then??
