Love it love it love it!!! You hit the nail on the head Lee, cats kill from instinct and hunger. Humans kill from ego. It makes me sick (what humans do). We pulled up into the driveway last night and a bunny ran across. My husband said to me, "isn't it amazing how the cats don't seem to bother these rabbits?" yes it's amazing! Humans are amazing. They come up with the most wonderful ideas, like gestation crates, a lovely form of all sorts of deprivation. What bothers me is that we think we have the RIGHT to do what we do to other beings. OK, I'm done. Thanks for the email(-:
