    Due to recent wildfires, Animal Services are loaded to the brim with
    displaced animals, including 87 cats.
    Some fellow was evicted from his apartment last week and left another 80
    cats behind. That's 167 cats folks. Adopt one! I would, but I'm a dog
    guy. πŸ™πŸ™

    At this stage of your life a cat is precisely what you need - you may
    find them very low maintenance and yet very full of magic and gratitude.

    Having 80 cats is a symptom of a disease.

    Maybe it's time to start licensing cats. I had dogs for years and
    refused to buy a dog license but then they started sending someone
    around to see licenses and it was hard to tell them I didn't have a dog
    when there are two big dogs barking. I don't mind registering dogs so
    there is some sort of record to help enforce liability or to cover the
    costs of caring for a lost pet and it helps pay for the cost of animal
    control law enforcement. I started to realize the only enforcement they
    did was making sure people paid for their licenses. The local shelter
    had no dogs being cared for. It was was full of cats,rabbits and other rodents. They didn't have enough dogs for people to adopt so they
    started importing them. Some came from shelters in the US and others
    from indian reserves way up north. They actual sent their people way up
    to Northern Ontario to gather up dogs on reserves. Fine for them if
    they can afford it, but damned if I am going to pay to support it.

    Maybe it's time to start licensing cats.
    And maybe it's time for you to do some homework before you pop off:
    AI Overview
    Whether cats need to be licensed in Nevada depends
    entirely on the specific city or county where you live, as pet
    licensing rules are handled at the local level rather than by the
    state.
    Local Licensing Rules
    In the City of Fallon, cats do not need to be licensed.Per the Fallon
    City Code, mandatory city licensing and fees apply strictly to
    dogs.However, you should keep the following laws in mind if you keep a
    cat in Fallon or surrounding Churchill County:
    Rabies Vaccinations are
    Mandatory: All cats within the city limits must be vaccinated against
    rabies by a licensed veterinarian. If you adopt a cat from local animal control, you are required to purchase a voucher to ensure the animal
    gets vaccinated immediately.
    Spay/Neuter Rules: The city strongly
    regulates the spaying and neutering of local pets to control the
    overpopulation of community cats.
    Henderson: Cats aged 3 months or older must be licensed
    and microchipped within 30 days of moving into the city or turning 3
    months old. You can register them through City of Henderson Animal
    Protection Services or PetData. [
    North Las Vegas: Cats are required to wear a license tag at all times,
    and rabies vaccinations are mandatory.
    Las Vegas & Clark County: Rabies vaccinations are required for cats, but opinions on formal licensing enforcement vary by specific neighborhood,
    with unincorporated Clark County focusing heavily on microchip mandates
    rather than traditional cat licenses.
    General Requirements
    Where cat licenses are required, you will generally
    need to provide:Proof of a current rabies vaccination.Proof of spaying
    or neutering (which often lowers the licensing fee).

    LOL I had a small mutt dog (Sampson) when I lived in Memphis years ago.
    Some sheriff's deputy knocked on my door and demanded to see my dog
    license. As you say, it's hard to hide a barking dog. So I took the
    dog to get registered and had to pay a $25 fine for not having a
    license. I also had to make sure he was vaccinated against rabies and
    other things just in case he bit someone... which was likely since Sammy
    did not like anyone but me.

    As it is, my cat is not registered. Nor does she go outside. She does, however, have a microchip in case she escapes and is found by someone
    else. She's also been vaccinated in case she bites someone, which is
    highly unlikely since she runs and hides the minute anyone comes to the
    door. ;)

    When I had Pema the cat and she developed a bladder problem the vet wanted
    to vaccinate her especially for feline leukemia and feline aids. Two or
    three times the vet brought it up and each time I said no. She _never_
    went outside, was _never_ around any other cat either. Quite timid when
    anyone came to visit and I thought that would be a waste of money.

    The only shots required for a cat here is against rabies. I obliged.
    Since Cleo never goes outside she does not need the FeLV vacciation. I

    Rabies shots are not compulsory here because there is no rabies in
    Australia. They want to keep it that way. Members from the Trump
    regime have to undergo extra rabies testing before they're allowed
    into the country.

    You need to adopt two. They can be a lot of company and a lot of fun plus you'll not be tormented by mice. Of course, they get into stuff and are very nosey, but they also are not ankle chewers either nor do they bark their heads off when someone knocks at the door.

    AI Overview
    Parking for 24 hours in downtown Chicago (the Loop and Magnificent Mile) generally costs between $30 and $60 in a garage, though drive-up rates
    at central facilities can reach $54 to $70+ without a reservation.

    About the only time I've seen cats that don't hunt if they've been raised with pet mice, rats, or even squirrels.

    They hunt by instinct, and will often kill, but they don't recognize the
    mouse as food. because they don't see it as food, they're less
    deliberate, and more playful. They're less effective. That's especially
    true if they're kept indoors, and a mouse is a novelty.

    A cat that has not been taught to hunt, and has had very little
    experience with hunting because mice in the house are a rarity, and
    doesn't associate mice with food, will likely be a poor enforcer.

    Part of my job at the church was mouser. If a mouse got into one of the preschool rooms, they turned to me. The children went to the playground
    or gym. I moved every fixture about an inch way from the wall. Once the
    mouse ran behind one, I got in front of it and abruptly shoved the
    bookcase or whatever toward the wall, crushing the mouse, and killing it almost instantly. Then, I took it away in a paper towel and gave the all
    clear for the class to return.

    There's a bunch more, but the links above should do.


    You need to adopt two. They can be a lot of company and a lot of
    fun plus you'll not be tormented by mice. Of course, they get into
    stuff and are very nosey, but they also are not ankle chewers
    either nor do they bark their heads off when someone knocks at the
    door.
    Normally, if they haven't been taught to hunt mice by their mothers,
    they are only somewhat effective at killing them. Our son just
    brought his GF's cat over for a visit while they went to dinner. The
    GF is moving to Chicago tomorrow, for graduate school. Good chance
    we'll end up catsitting there sometimes because they like to travel.
    That'd mean a free place to stay in Chicago too. We'd have to take
    Amtrak up there because parking is outrageous.

    *****
    AI Overview
    Parking for 24 hours in downtown Chicago (the Loop and Magnificent
    Mile) generally costs between $30 and $60 in a garage, though
    drive-up rates at central facilities can reach $54 to $70+ without a reservation. *****


    That's like low range motel rates!

    have Trollie's mouth print on your anuses or is it ani?

    If you crosspost, I don't see it and can wrap this up with a heartfelt
    Enjoy! :)

    If you don't see it, then why are you whining about it Master?

    "If you crosspost." If you find it difficult, read slowly and follow
    the words with your finger, Hankie.

    Let me over-think that for a bit. Maybe you'll see a reply.

    Filtering out cross posted stuff and those who cross post is a good way
    to rid the incoming posts of the nonsense and trolling. There is a small number of trolls who feel compelled to spread their nonsense across
    usenet by including a bunch of other groups, some of which are notorious
    for flaming and political rants.

    I make no secret of filtering out cross posted stuff. I realize that
    some people might respond to a something not realizing that it was cross posted and it ends up being sent to all those same groups. If it is a
    regular contributor I let it slide. When it comes to those who start a
    thread or add a response to a thread and they start the cross posting
    they automatically get tossed into the Bozo bin.

    Yes. Looking the posts from yesterday -

    At least 39% of the articles were crossposted to other newsgroups.
    The top ten crossposted newsgroups and their counts were -
    16 rec.arts.tv
    13 alt.food.fast-food
    8 alt.home.repair
    4 sci.environment
    3 alt.politics.trump
    3 fl.politics
    2 alt.food.asian
    2 alt.food.mexican
    2 alt.politics.democrats
    2 alt.usenet.legends.lester-mosley
    It's probably just me (and I don't care what anybody else thinks
    about this, so save your hate), but the appropriate topics for alt.food.fast-food have little to do with cooking food at home (rec.food.cooking). My filters keep out copycat recipes for big Macs
    and its sauce. As for some of the other food newsgroups, don't care
    about wasabi. Those other newsgroups, deplorable.

    Yeah, I filter out crossposts, but do have access to them, when
    bored.

    That's like low range motel rates!

    Lower range than any place we'd stay in Chicagoland, but a very
    well reviewed Quality Inn in the SW suburbs is only $83 with
    taxes. We usually stay out there and drive in only as far as the
    last train stop.

    This is what I made my wife for lunch. It used some of the steak we
    couldn't finish last night. I just can't eat anywhere near what I
    could a few weeks ago.

    You are as much of a troll as "Trollie." It posts far more on topic
    than you do/have ever. It was not always that way, but it has
    improved. You have not.

    The chef mixed up his own shrimp sauce. Tomato paste, prepared
    horseradish, simple syrup (I made allulose syrup to use), white vinegar,
    salt and a pinch of onion powder. Allulose, the choice of shrinking
    chefs everywhere.
