To the Editor:
Why do some people who have cats feel it’s perfectly acceptable for their cats to roam the neighborhood at will?
There is a black cat that has decided he enjoys being in my yard on West Ohio Avenue. He digs in the garden to deposit his feces. He catches birds and leaves the remains behind. I’ve had to stop feeding the birds because the cat sits under my porch and waits for the innocent birds to land to pick up stray seeds and then pounces on them. Cats can carry diseases also.
