No, by all means, let your cats roam

According to the Dutch ministry of health there's no reason whatsoever to keep your cats inside in order to prevent the spread of H5N1. There's hardly any chance of them getting infected anyway.

Oh really.

According to Dr. Kuiken (which translates as Dr. 'Chick') and Dr. Rimmelzwaan (which translates as Dr. Swan - I am not making this up), the risk is definitely there. And Nature seems to think so as well.

Fortunately, Ender is much too busy sleeping anyway.

I suspect H5N1 is an Islamist conspiracy anyway. They've been trying to keep their birds caged for ages. Oh, we're talking about poultry, never mind.

Our cat will only go after birds on the wing - so I think she's OK - but the thought of trying to keep her indoors in Spring boggles the mind! New interior decorations after the scare has passed...

Remember me?


Epibratie
"I believe in life. I believe in treasuring it as a mystery that will never be fully understood, as a sanctity that should never be destroyed, as an invitation to experience now what can only be remembered tomorrow. (...)
I believe in liberty. I believe that within every soul lies the capacity to reach for its own good, that within every physical body there endures an unalienable right to be free from coercion. (...)
I believe in the pursuit of happiness. Not its attainment, nor its final definition, but its pursuit. I believe in the journey, not the arrival; in conversation, not monologues; in multiple questions rather than any single answer."
Andrew Sullivan
