Most people love animals, especially cats and dogs. We call them our best friends, spending billions and billions on food and other supplies for them as a nation every year. But every year in the United States millions of cats and dogs become strays or wind up in shelters. Pet Overpopulation has become a serious issue in this country. There arenot enough pet shelters, only about 5000 pet shelters in the whole of the U.S. Although shelters are able to take in 7 million cats and dogs every year, only half of these will find good homes from the shelter. The rest are euthanizedbecause pet shelters cant accommodate them.

If we truly love these animals as we say, we must take drastic measures to protect them from what they cannot protect themselves against: themselves. It is up to us to institute sterilization programs so that we don’t have to kill the animals who would be born. Cats and dogs reproduce much faster than humans. Cats can have as many as 3 litters a year of 4-6 kittens and dogs can give birth twice a year and have 6-10 puppies. Population can increase exponentially. Sterilization has already worked well in many ares.

There are many complex parts that need to be taken into consideration when implementing such a plan. It involves many people working well together. Laws can be passed to ensure that animals are sterilized , or increasing the cost of a license for an animal that is not spayed or neutered.

There are great consequences if action is not taken. There are too many animals for the amount of people who have taken them in. Some animal shelters have become warehouses for animals. This widespread cruelty to animals encourages and permits cruelty everywhere. Strays can disrupt neighborhoods, scaring or biting people, getting into trash cans, and scaring away wildlife. About 4.5 million people are bitten by dogs every year, many of them strays. Dangerous dogs can be a result of overpopulation or breeding that disregards the dogs temperament. Instead of trying to deal with the consequences of overpopulation, we should deal with the real issue. Spay or neuter your pets.

Cat lovers have put cats on a pedestool for many years. This comes as no surprise because cats are interesting animals. From their behavior to their body make-up, cats are fascinating! Cat whiskers, lesser known as tactile hairs or vibrissae are as interesting as a cat itself. The top and bottom rows of cats’ whiskers move separately, aiding the cat to detect wind which helps them find out where a scent is coming from. Whiskers are also part of a system that allows cats to detect atmospheric weather changes that mean a storm or even an earthquake is headed its way.

A feline’s whiskers help them find what they do not visualize. Although cats see better than humans in the dark, it is a myth that cats have superior night vision. What truly is the case is that their whiskers help to guide them in the dark.

When a cat catches prey, such as a mouse, it will use its whiskers to determine if the mouse will take off if it is set down

Cat’s whiskers are much thicker than cat hair. Cats do lose their whiskers. The good news is they grow back.

Cat’s whiskers can tell you things based upon their movement.

{spin]Now that I’ve done it three times, I’ve become an expert on moving with cats|After repeated relocations, I know how to move my cats without them having a fit|If you can get your cat used to moving in a car, they will love it[/spin]. Let the professional movers handle your things, and let you concentrate on your cats. In some areas it is illegal for moving services to move animals in the truck. With the right carrier, your cat, not to mention your vehicle, will survive the trip no worse the wear. Cats do not like to be confined in small areas, you will want to ensure your cat has enough room. Since I have a SUV, I can use two large doghouses. Made of plastic and metal, they’re fashioned to look like wicker and have plenty of open spaces for the cats to see outside; it is important there be enough air for your cat. You will need a carrier or crate that either fits snugly, or you can tie down for your cats safety. By getting a truck rental you will probably not drive your personal car in addition. Since your cats will be groggy and not able to get in and out of the carrier themselves, you will want to leave enough room for you to get them in and out of the crate. I outfitted the doghouses with plush, round cat beds. They will drift in and out of consciousness for about eight hours.

I used to worry about the cats’ need to use the litter box. After several failed attemps of getting them to use the litter box, I realize they will need to be awake and not drowsy, when they go. I even tried putting the boxes in the carrier with them. None of these methods worked – the cats never used a litter box until we arrived at the motel. So long as your cats are under the influence of the seditatives, you may not want to try to give them food as it could make them sick.

Your cats should not be any trouble to take to the room, as they are just starting to snap out of the effects of the drugs. Getting your cats to and from the motel room should be simple, just carry them in your arms. A cat will remember what they need to do when they are outside going in, they do not like to be in the open in unfamiliar an unfamiliar area–I never had an issue with a cat trying to make a dash for it. Still, be careful that your car is parked outside the motel room door so that you’re not walking more than a few steps.

Be sure to pack an overnight bag for your cats as well as yourself. Make sure the food is in a sealed container, plus you will want to pack dishes, toys and a litter box. They are lightweight plastic boxes filled with litter and enclosed with a paper top. You will want to set up the box first, before you get yourself settled in. These boxes are convenient as you can just throw them away as you leave the room.

Always stay in motels that accept pets. Even motels that welcome pets will charge a small fee for the pet. If there happens to be a little spilled food or litter, this will not be a big deal. After the drugs have worn off all the way, your cats will want to explore the room they are in for the night.
