OT: Neutering pets

Real men train them

Indeed, another stupid thing people do.

They shouldn't. I only know of one person that sort of does that, the cat is nervous of traffic or something, it actually doesn't want to go out. I was stood at her door for 10 minutes chatting and the cat just sat in the doorway.

Cow?

Then it's a failed farm animal.

I'm disappointed, I was expecting them to attack each other with them, after stretching the sack to 2 feet long.

Might in Australia. Most of the world lives way too close together.

Or they like naked kids running around the house.

The big one doesn't lay eggs will never be eaten, sheared or ridden. (She's mean)

Humans can override their instincts and make rational decisions, unlike cats - at least most humans.

When she was going to graduate school my wife lived with a roommate in a Boston apartment. The roommate had a cat whose big adventure was going out into the hall. The thing was psychotic and tried to destroy anything it could reach. The roommate wasn't much better but you put up with a lot when the rents are staggering.

Barbecue on the cloven hoof... My parents raised a pig -- once. If you have a herd of pigs they're just pigs. One pig turns into a pet. The pig did ultimately wind up on the table but the experiment was not repeated.

Maybe the little ones, eventually. As for mom, she'll live her days out on the farm, never to be eaten, sheared, ridden or somehow becoming an egg layer.

Yet, she's still a farm animal, contrary to what Rod Slow...umm...I mean...Speedo says.

I'd have enclosed the roommate and the cat in a small space and watched them destroy each other.

You have no idea how the cat's mind works, since nobody has ever had a conversation with one. Your superiority complex is showing. Humans are not better than another species and have no right interfering with it.

An apartment in Boston is a small space by definition.

Anyone living in an overcrowded city is an idiot by definition.

Nothing psychopathic about enjoying the misfortune of others. There are countless TV shows and Youtube channels based on this.

I tend to agree but when you're looking for the best graduate school in your field... For full disclosure my ex-wife lives in Manhattan, NYC; I don't. Probably a moral to that story.

Schadenfreude.
