Let's ask the cats about cat curfews in Europe because of the Bird Flu

Who cares what I think about kitty curfews in France, Germany, Slovenia, and Italy? It's time for a new feature of TBIFOC called Ask The Cats!

Four European countries today imposed restrictions on the movements of cats after a dead cat in Germany was discovered to have been infected with bird flu.

The dead animal was found yesterday on the Baltic island of Ruegen, where more than 100 wild birds have died of the deadly H5N1 strain of the virus. Experts say that the cat probably fell ill after eating an infected bird.

What do you think about kitty curfews in France, Germany, Slovenia, and Italy?


Nardo: Could you please cover your beak while you cough?

Piper: Playing with birds is dangerous? Whatever. Toys are much more interesting to play with. Plus, they're less messy and noisy when you tear them apart.

Frisky: That's one reason among many to thank God that Texas is not in France.

Adira: Is this breaking curfew?

Rafe: This bird is mine!

KT: I don't play with birds, I play soccer. Can soccer balls give you bird flu?

Her Ladyship: Curfew? Hah! Impose one of those things on me, and I'll make you squeeze through my cat door.

Thank you, kittycats.

Does your cat have an opinion on the subject? Then send the following to askthecats (at) isfullofcrap.com:

  • A photo of the cat or cats in JPEG format (If you've already submitted the photo, it will be in my gallery archive and just let me know the URL of the thumbnail photo to use again)
  • Their opinion, whether it pertains to the subject or not
  • (optional) Your URL

And you'll see them up here with the rest of the kittycats!

The Gigolokitty asks, why is this unfair curfew being inflicted on the innocent kitties? Place a curfew of those darned birds! None of this would have happened if those feathered rodents took better care of their health.

However, he is cancelling his date with the fetching German Shepherd he met last week.

Russ:

Is it just me, or does Frisky look extra fluffy?

Radish:

Is Nardo feeling OK? He didn't reference lizards.

What a marvelous photo of Frisky! Well, all of them are great, but this one is really special. Congrats!

GK- Should I be using a GK stock photo and posting the GK responses?

Radish- Nardo has yet to bring home a lizard now that it's summer.
