Cutting it close again, this time for #Halloween.

This is a #wip of my brother's three cats, which I'm drawing for my niece. On her birthday, I promised her a cvstom Tee-Sh|rt, and we settled on the family felines. These are, from left to right, the Dalek, the Doctor, and Tiny (sometimes known as the Demon, since she has picked fights with the Doctor for little or no reason).

Local governments in Tasmania are developing a single position on cat management - pets, strays & ferals. The lowest hanging fruit is to prevent #petcats from roaming. We've been talking about this for way too long, it's time for decisive & effective action nationwide.

Many misunderstandings feature in the public discussion on the how & why of preventing #petcats from #roaming. This piece does a great job of highlighting the benefits while busting the myths. For cats, #wildlife & people, permanent containment is simply the right thing to do.

To catio or not to catio? Perth cat owners, there is no question

The popularity of cat enclosures is growing as owners look to better the life of their feline friends (and the environment).

The #WAFCWG continue to pursue solutions for more responsible pet cat ownership in WA. We need to end the shocking #welfare issues for #petcats & #wildlife that come from allowing pet cats to roam, a position backed by evidence & public opinion.

Roaming cats kill 47 million native Perth animals a year. These crusaders want that to end

The WA Feral Cat Working Group has urged the government to make an election promise to allow councils to introduce laws forcing Perth’s cat owners to keep them on their property.

Pet cats are also being considered as part of the #threat abatement plan for #FeralCats. "The focus of that plan is on feral cat #management, but the plan recognises that to do that effectively you also need to think about what's happening with #PetCats."

The plan to lock up pet cats - ABC listen

Cats are killing Australia’s wildlife at such an alarming rate that governments around the country are working on a major crackdown. The draft management plan focuses mainly on feral felines, but domestic cats, let out of the house to roam are also recognised as a problem. In some council areas, felines would be forced to be securely enclosed 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Today, Sarah Legge, a leading researcher in the field who’s worked with the federal government on its plan, discusses the issue.  She highlights the severe impact cats have on native wildlife, with more than 200 threatened species affected.  Professor Legge also explains the proposed measures, including constant containment for pet cats and the creation of cat-free suburbs.  She emphasises the importance of balancing cat ownership with wildlife conservation and suggests practical solutions for cat owners to minimise their pets’ impact on the environment.

On #InternationalCatDay, we must do better for our #PetCats. Keeping #cats safe at home is better for cats, better for #wildlife and better for people. Communities across #WesternAustralia are calling for this change now. Thank you #CatHavenWA & #WAFCWG for leading the charge.

I enjoyed talking with Adin Lang, and Heather Crawford at a workshop on the benefits for all from permanently containing #petcats. We covered the #evidence supporting this goal, the #policy context and the how and why. There was so much ambition amongst the audience to get this happening now!
We really need to rethink what it means to be a #cat owner in Australia and see cat #containment as a basic responsibility. It's better for everyone this way - #people, #pets and #wildlife
