I get the message. Cats were domesticated about 9,500 years ago. They came in from the wild and joined up with mankind as life was easier; they got fed and were kept warm.
But the initial euphoria of their new life as domestic cats has waned. They are now kept in unnatural conditions locked up inside the homes of humans permanently. They crave to go out and silently accept what is dished out to them by the No.1 animal species in the world.
Cats are adaptable but that doesn't mean they should be abused. And sometimes we do abuse them. We play God with the domestic cat by breeding strange breeds that can only live indoors.
We break our "contract" with them and abandon them when they become feral cats and yes warrior cats but in the harsh unfamiliar world of humans where they die young.
We kill them in a million different ways, the most recent of which is the "cleansing" of the streets of stray cats by the Chinese before the Olympics.
It is time (and the moral of the warrior cat tale is this) that we change our ways and made life better for the domestic cat. I don't mean individuals. There are many wonderful individual cat keepers. I mean in general terms things have gone wrong for the domestic cat.
