OMG A total overreaction! Sure, as a newspaper girl (now retired...) pets were a huge irritant to me but mainly dogs. The kitten was probably just pawing at the mail and scratched her by mistake. Sure, its justified to send a letter to the owners, but not one demanding the kitten be disciplined! What are they going to do? Sit it down and explain what a bad kitty it has been? It should have just requested that they get a cage for their letter box!

Glad I'm not the only one angered by that remark.

This article made me laugh. If this guy wants to see serious cat damage he should ahve my job for a day (cat groomer- like dog grooming but double the blood loss). That kitten is utterly adorable, by the way.

Well thats just silly. To your dog some stranger in a odd outfit is coming to your door with a big bag. If I was a dog I'd bark too, whats in the bag? what are you doing at my house? Who the heck are you? My mom/dad isn't home. Get off my lawn ! Don't you dare pee on my best bush! ect ect....
