Letter of the day
The Eagle-Gazette is always good for a laugh when it publishes a letter to the editor. I do not know what prompted this response, and I don't much care. All I wonder is what is this black cat up to?
To the Editor:
This letter is about Steve Spears and the cats. I never said I didn't like cats, read what I wrote again.
I don't know you, but I'll say one thing: You are a smart aleck. All I said is that they should be treated like dogs. As for mice, I have lived here for 47 years, and I have never seen one mouse or rat. I'll tell you what to do with your cat, get a better box, a license and a collar. If you want it to go for a walk, you go take it for a walk Steve Spears, with a collar and lead strap. Like we do for our dogs. Maybe people are too lazy to do that. You say I'll let my cat out, and they can pee or poo any place. You don't care. For you know it will go out of your yard and do what it has to do.
So, Steve Spears whoever you are, you are a rude person.
I just read in the paper what Kari Windon had to say about what I wrote about cats. Thanks Kari Windon.
But this one big black cat is still wandering around. But so far, he hasn't come into my yard in the last week. I've seen him on the next street, and there's a Dumpster behind Quality Plumbing and Heating. I don't know what, but I've seen several different cats go under it and disappear. After a while, they come back out and go down or up the street.
I never said I didn't like cats. Yes, I have a big piece of cement on top of my two garbage cans and a chain through each handle, and it fastened to the gate. It worked so far. Just once the trash and garbage was all over the road on the ground. So I got a larger cement block and it's worked so far.
