That Thai restaurant has been a boon to local cats, all those outdoor tables ...

Cats can fend for themselves, but it means they die young and have hard lives. I think that if you are going to take the enjoyment of cat ownership, you are obligated to do the work, too.

These people often expect their neighbours to keep an eye on car thieves who have several times had a go at their ludicrous car. I suspect that goodwill may be significantly lessened in future.
