The fact remains that they are killed by poison anyway. Normally cats can survive in Cyprus - without the poisonings - if there is a garden.
They should be prosecuted for 'abandonement'.
Yes normally WILD cats can survive. Home cats cannot because they get lazy. For example:
Have you ever seen a cat walked around the block with a walking string? Nope only home cats can do that. I use to walk by a shop and there was persian cat always sleeping on the same spot at the window. For 3 months I thought it was fake until it moved :S.
Most cars in Cyprus are homeless and eat out of the garbages. Its not like in some european countries where homeless cats are killed. In Hungary where I live I have never seen a cat on the street for 2 years now :/. Always wondered why until I asked my gf.
Now about the dogs. Well YES this people should be punished. There is people who actually babysit this animals while your gone.
