yep. Because dogs can seriously hurt people, most owners keep them contained or on leashes. If their off leash, it's usually with the owner present (wrongly or rightly).
Cats, for the most part, are left to roam the neighborhood. No accountability for what they do, since they don't maul people. Forget the fact that the front of our house smell of cat urine because one of our flower beds is so irrisistable. The cat owner abviously doesn't care about that sort of thing.
I've seen loose dogs in my neighborhood probably 6 times in the part 5 years. I see loose cats almost every day.
Seems like it. Dogs are very noticable, cats fly under the radar some ?
A well trained dog by its owner is expected to listin& obey. Cats are expected to pretty much do there own thing, indiffent& seen different. For dogs high fences, chains choke collers commands- can be trained to preform usefull jobs for man.
It seems also my nabor sees there cats running as ok - but not there nabors dogs.
I think both shouldnt.And should be kept under control by there owners.
But can you call a dog with a eletric can opener call?

You cannot control what your cats do. By that I mean if you let them outdoors they're gone to do what they please. A dog you can fence, a cat ? Unlikely.

nice job logs!![8D] i've "removed" 3 feral cats from my yard so far, and i know once the birds get nesting they'll be out again..i "remove" all the grackles, cowbirds, and feral cats i can so the birds have ideal nesting habitat. works out great.
They cost the taxpayers ONE BILLION dollars in injuries.

Dog bites 333,687
That's around $3000 per incident. What do you mean by "taxpayers?"
Are you saying taxes pay for all these injuries? If so, I don't think that's so. Of course we're all taxpayers (theoretically), so everything that costs money is paid by "taxpayers."
