Trying to freeze biodiversity at a point in time is exceedingly stupid. Its pointless, absolutely guaranteed to fail and just an enormous waste of money.

Makes hand wringing do-gooders feel better about the reality that their lifestyle and existence impacts the world.

I hear what you are saying but if you own an animal then you are responsable for what it does. If you let it wanted into other peoples property to shit in their garden (potentially giving those people a harmfull disease), kill their chooks or kill a Kiwi then you are responsable for those crimes in the same way a dog owner who lets his dog attack sheep is. We don't let any other animals wander at will so why should we tollerate it for cats?

Tussock - I think the cat's mind control parasites have gotten to you and are influencing your thoughts and actions.

I will point out this has little to do with cats. This is about pissing off one of the most intractable forces in our society. Little old ladies. They have phones, cats and nothing to do. They will form committees. Office after office of the government will go down due to being swamped in carefully hand written letters. Pressure will be placed on sons and daughters in high office.


These people are pissing into the wind. The biddies will tear them apart.

Cats have more backing than they do.

God I'd hate to meet Mrs Gold Memeber then

Maybe we should ban all Dogs from the forests also as some do escape and kill Kiwis.

They are already banned in that if a dog is found on DOC land (outside the tightly controlled boundries of a dog permit) then it will be impounded and\or destroyed. If you want it out of the pound you have to pay a fine. This is how it should be, it's just that cats have an exemption from the normal rules cos they control the old ladies and they rule the world.
