Normally, it is unwise to feed someone else’s cat unless there is an obvious need to do so. This is a dilemma which confronts probably millions of people in America and hundreds of thousands of people in the UK annually. When cats are allowed to wander outside, they often visit neighbouring homes. The owners …
We don’t know much about the genetic mutation which causes a cat to have 4 ears, which the experts describe as a “cosmetic anomaly”.

I think it will help because the ornithologists like to promote the idea that domestic cats kill billions of birds annually (see base of page) and this only applies to America!
