Yep they are.

I have seen some AWESOME ones people have constructed that have large cage areas with lawn, then high and low "tunnels" that run all over the garden. The cat pretty much has free range of the yard, can experience the smells and sights, but isn't a threat to wildlife and isn't threatened by cars or malicious people.

Aye, right with you there, totally love the idea of cat runs, particularly here in Australia. I forgot that you were even in Australia (you ARE in Australia, right? This IS cosmos? Or have I gone and confused someone else and just wound up with two friends instead of one??).

I'd personally love something like a cat-run for my birdies, but with an eventually open top.. and a small area for them to hop in and out of the house as they please.

*reads the links*

Oh god, that's horrific. I had no idea. I'm just glad I wasn't FOR declawing before either.. I'm totally against man does 'owning' animals, but even moreso against any mutilation. It took all the guts I had to trim my birds feathers, and I was insanely careful about it and read up heaps - and thank the gods, I did it perfectly. Their wings grow back regularly and quickly and they're pooping from the top of the curtains again in no time *laughs*

They actually go up higher less because now they understand that it's one of the VERY FEW no-nos here. Well, they still go up to the curtain rails, they just don't crap on the curtain itself. Now if only I could get them to poop only on newspaper..
