Stray pet owners irresponsible

November 20, 2009

To the editor: I couldn’t help but respond to the letter from Veleda Cordes. I can’t imaging I am the only one that is upset. Pet owners who let their animals roam the neighborhood are not responsible. I love animals, but since I don’t have pets I do not appreciate ANY of them making deposits in my yard, digging up my flowerbeds or killing the birds that I feed. And no - it is NOT good fertilizer. I have grandkids and shouldn’t have to clean my yard before they go out to play. If you wish to keep your housecat outside, keep it fenced in, leashed, contained to your property! If I see a cat running around I will assume it is an unneutered, unsprayed stray. Here in New Ulm we have rules of respect that include both dogs and cats (not to mention irresponsible neighbors).

Bloodshed of the innocent

November 17, 2009

To the editor:
