Holy crap! My cat just drug in a

Reublican.
What am I supposed to do with it? Sure is snarly.
I have heard they can get really nasty. It's threatening to take my social security and medicare, bust my union and take over the schools.
I am afraid to let it back out cause it could cause a lot of harm running around loose, but I sure don't want to keep it.

damned cats.

You might want to get it a booster to keep it from catching something nasty.

They will take care of strays.

BTW, animal control is a much needed and terrific govt service. I worked in India, and they have no animal control. So, the streets are littered with all kinds of stray animals, cats, dogs, cows, monkeys, etc., and they spread all sorts of diseases.

And I thought I had it bad when my two cats brought in a rat this morning from the neighbors garage!
It didn't pee on anything, did it?

We called our local law enforcement. Small town, they do everything.
It has been removed to a shelter where it can be adopted out. Although I don't hold much hope for that.

It can be done, but it ain't easy. They do have a natural revulsion to republicans, though.

doses. It should start to respond and be reasonable in a few days. They are very susceptible to fake things so keep it away from contact with used car salesmen and preachers. It will want you to ignore your needs and give it everything. You must make it share and let it see that others have needs too.

Do not give it any power of any kind unless you need to have something screwed up then stop it right away because it will not stop on its own.

It's a challenge and its charm will let you forget that its fear of relevance will feed its need for dominance. Good luck.
