It's not swarths of cat killings and missing cats over the past 2 decades that is making UK cat owners say they had enough and keep their cats indoors...
No, instead it is a string of cats (roughly 80) that have had patches of their hair shaved in the past year...
Owners are freaking out thinking this is abuse - it's not. Owners are worried the hair will never grow back right - it will, it just takes quite a while for the hair to 'age out'. Owners this this hurts the cats - it doesn't, in fact whoever is doing this hasn't burned or nicked the skin. Owners believe this is traumatizing to the animal - Fair, it may very well give the PTSD by bullying from the neighborhood cats, but we can't diagnose trauma in animals yet as it's literally impossible to diagnose so :akarinShrug:
In fact I think whoever is doing this might be some sort of groomer. The lines are really straight and the cuts are very even.
