Road Safety

Keeping your cat indoors with the windows open Cats and cars are not usually a happy combination! In any meeting the cat is pretty well guaranteed to come of worse. And it’s not just a busy road that can be a problem, indeed it could be argued that once cats realise the road is busy and avoid it, it is safer than a quiet country road where the cat becomes complacent and is knocked over by the only car which goes by all morning.






Cat Theft

Keeping your cat indoors with the windows open Pet theft is a lucrative activity for criminals due to the minimal risk of detection. The Missing Pets Bureau found that 38% of those who report their animal missing have actually been the victim of theft. Due to a lack of official statistics, quantifying the scale of cat theft is difficult. Pet Lost claims that "About 80 per cent of the 1,300 cases they have completed involve suspicious circumstances. ”Thieves have gained an excellent understanding of the value of animals. The disappearance of hundreds of household cats has sparked calls for an official inquiry. Concern has been fuelled by the existence of a legal Swiss trade in cat fur.
