Imagine that on a small island! Have a look at what a lovely lady called Mrs Cotter was faced with on Cape Clear Island. When I was on the ferry moving here, with three cats they asked ARE THEY FIXED? They had had a similar situation here. Tory Island was a disgrace the brutal way they went; and rescues in the UK would have taken all the cats from there.

I've been to Cape Clear, great birdlife there, cats could destroy the place.

I wouldn't do it to my cats, but I did make one wear a big colourful clown collar type thing in the hope that birds would see him. He ripped it to shreds like everything else.

A bit like this:

I think animals in costumes is cruel. They are animals not toys or people.

Explain this one, because if it's a thing the vast majority of security sensors and wildlife cameras need changing

A bit like this:

Some on the cycling forum think that wearing dayglo clothing does not make you more visible to others - I wonder if that applies to birds as well ?

I dont mind dressing them up a little like that but draw the line at a silly bell hanging out of a collar. ( Very appropriate for a neutered Tom all the same )

Eh, no, he's a cat. He does like playing with balls (don't we all) but his primary interests are food and sleep and looking fantastic

I haven't. I was awful fond of a particular cat gif at one stage until it was pointed out to me that it is more than likely a real cat and the pose is possible because of strings.
Don't ask me how I thought it wasn't a real one to begin with. Shure lookit. Mind acrobatics probably.

I don't even love cats, in fact I barely like them. They are living creatures though and it just isn't cool to toy with them in such a way.

I've only ever make toasties in the George foreman, I've never used it for anything, half sorry I dumped the sandwich maker,I think it made nicer sandwiches.

Maybe the pain is from the forced stupid picture rather than the infrared. I don't know.

Cats and infrared: they can't see it, more likely to sense heat, here's the science

Some insects, such as bedbugs, can also detect infrared radiation, using it like snakes to detect the living creatures that they want to feed from. Other insects also detect infrared, but for a different reason: some beetles use this capacity to detect forest fires, not to allow them to escape, but to allow them to head towards burning areas so that they can lay their eggs in newly burnt wood.

It'd be more difficult for warm blooded creatures like mammals to have infrared vision because our bodies are warm, which would create massive interference, with own production of infrared swamping our senses. Vampire bats have a way of getting around this. They have heat-sensitive pits on their nose that are thermally insulated from the surrounding tissues. These allow them to "see" the warm patches that indicate the location of superficial blood vessels on their victims.

So what about cats being able to find the warm patch on the bed? Cats do not have infrared vision but they do have sensitive heat receptors in their skin, making it easy to seek out warm patches to sleep.

And Cat Sex. Don't forget the Cat Sex! Inbred Cat Sex too. Then there was talk of indicators and gear sticks. If it all went on in the transit van, I'll pay good money for the pics and video footage. I believe there is a market for it.....apparently.:D

I once lived next door to swingers. When they were swinging, they lit a red light on the landing. The driveway would be full of cars and outside on the road too. I'd hear low music and chat around 9pm and then forget about it. Often was woken during the night to indicators and gear sticks or whatever. They tried to keep quiet, but it inevitably failed. Some nights me and Mrs G lay in bed awake listening to the carry on laughing our asses off. When Ms G was born, I had to have a word with them and it was the most uncomfortable word I ever had to have.

Professional people. No kids. Very funny.
