What is a cat licence for?
On the metro this week I was treated to a brief video from the City of Montreal explaining the ways the animal permit fee is useful to the populace. There were three short examples – all to do with dogs, training them and restraining them. Nothing to help me understand why I had to go plonk down twelve bucks this week at Accès Montréal to make my cat legal for another year, and which made me, as always, think of this. No cat detector van is going to catch me out!
Update: Note to dog owners: If you own a big dog, and you open a door and it rushes out without a leash and starts barking at and hassling a passing woman with a bag of groceries, and she yells at you to please call off your dog: CALL OFF YOUR DOG. Don’t stand there telling the woman she’s overreacting and the dog is harmless. CALL OFF YOUR FUCKING DOG.
(Now I’m going to put the groceries away.)
