That's a shame for someone to lose their family pet this way. Having no personal stake in the debate, I'll leave it alone. What it shows is that you can't trust a kid to respect a gate, no matter which side of it they belong on. Some years ago I was compelled to padlock the gate to my back yard after my neighbour's kids repeatedly left it opened when retrieving balls they'd lost over the fence. I had no objection to their entry provided they closed the gate when they left, but they wouldn't. My wife's cat was of a breed that couldn't jump fences, and we were safe in the knowledge that she wouldn't wander.... unless a careless child let her out :-( The lesson is that no matter how careful you are, nobody else gives a damn and one of them will undo your precautions. Cover every base, and then some. regards, Anthony -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
