Cos67 might be a prophet, part 1

[don't lick it, it'll hurt.]
I seem to remember a story I wrote last summer "bird lovers kill cat lovers"
Domesticated cats are cute, furry and purr nicely,
so every stoopid bourgeois family has to have one.
BUTT, they ravage one of the
last wild animal groups that dares enter human cities,
BIRDS
!
Cats kill the birds, not for food, because cats get fed well at home.
It's just for sport.
They kill millions of our tweety friends.
Anyway, the residents of Bremen, Germany
are not going to take it anymore.
They're gonna neuter cats.
CHOP!CHOP!
[that's a big thumper]

German officials order all stray cats to be neutered
City of Bremen to take drastic action to tackle out-of-control feline population, which threatens local songbirds

All stray cats in the north German city of Bremen are to be neutered under plans by the local council which campaigners hope could be extended to the whole country.

The drastic measure has been proposed by Bremen's interior minister, Ulrich Mäurer, in an attempt to control the city's burgeoning feline population, which is threatening local songbirds.

The local cat shelter used to look after around 120 cats at any one time. Now it has 378 on its books and fears that number will soon reach 500. In addition, at least 1,000 stray cats roam the streets, chasing birds and, it is feared, spreading disease.

"There are so many that the situation has got out of control," said Wolfgang Apel, chairman of the Bremen Animal Protection Society, which has started a petition inviting visitors to support mandatory castration. "They are becoming a burden to the public," he told the Süddeutsche Zeitung newspaper.
