ANOTHER ATTACK ON CATS
Ferdy the Cat evidently is furious with Boulder, Colorado. Yesterday we had the story of the Iowa town that is going to execute stray cats. Boulder is one-upping them. They now want all cats to stay indoors. Mine wouldn't be caught dead outside, but that's beside the point. Evidently, according to Ferdy, Boulder officials don't like the way cats are killing innocent animals and birds.
You gotta be kidding:
"...A Boulder official wants to push an ordinance that would require cat owners to keep their pets inside so they don't kill birds and other animals. Boulder Open Space Board of Trustees member Bruce Bland says domestic cats that are allowed to wander outdoors are responsible for the suffering of many small mammals and birds. Bland's idea has caught the attention of some Boulder City Council members who say they're interested in exploring it...."
There's more here.
What is going on here? Are we doing open season on cats? First we hear about the cat murders in China to make things nice for their Olympics this summer, then we hear about that Iowa town planning to kill them, then Boulder goes to the birds. As I showed yesterday, there are strange trends in society where cats are blamed for any number of superstitious ills. What we are seeing in Randolph, Iowa and Boulder, Colorado is no different from what has gone on since the Middle Ages when cats were seen as tools of the devil. Once again we are seeing primitive superstition attacking modern minds.
THE ATTACK ON THE PINK POODLE
Not content to harass and prevent innocent felines from doing what comes naturally, hunting birds, Boulder officials are now harassing Boulder's legendary Pink Poodle, Cici. Rumsfeld thinks Cici looks silly, but what ever floats your boat. If Cici wants to be pink, then Cici should be allowed to be pink. Her mommy uses natural veggie die to keep her pink. No poodles were harmed in her dye job, so what's the big deal?
"...The Boulder salon owner facing a $1,000 fine for dyeing her poodle pink will have to wait for her day in court, The Daily Camera reports. This morning Joy Douglas appeared before a judge in Boulder Municipal Court and asked for an extension because she now has an attorney. The judge granted Douglas' request and reset her hearing for April 7, the Camera reported. Douglas, owner of Zing Hair Salon at 1100 Spruce St., received a $1,000 ticket from an animal-control officer for coloring her white poodle, Cici, pink by using organic beet juice...."We've received a number of complaints about the dog," said Lisa Pedersen, director of the humane society. "We've been out to talk with Joy several times. Finally, we gave her a ticket to let the courts decide the issue."..."This is a misrepresentation of what animal control is supposed to be," said Douglas, who drives a pink scooter, a pink car and now is looking for a lawyer to represent her and her pink dog. "This doesn't hurt Cici at all. We color her about once a week to keep it bright. She's fine."
Pedersen agreed that the dog appears to be well-cared for, except that she's pink...."

I've also heard that Cici's mom could face up to 90 days in jail for dying Cici pink. Smartdogs has a photo of Cici. As the owner of an obnoxious toy poodle who just went to the Poodle Parlor (he has a messy cut, that is in keeping with is rancid behavior) I can attest tot he fact that Cici appears to be a very happy poodle. She's well groomed and evidently has an extensive wardrobe, as does Rumsfeld. Face it, poodles are not NORMAL dogs.
