Hello everyone!
Now I know the title is kinda weird but it's true cats are pretty awesome, :p
Anyway what this post is about is this weeks writing which is about if cats should be banned or not.
Sadly I only had two days to work on this so I hope it turned out good and that you all enjoy it I think that I would have liked to make some of the paragraphs longer but couldn't think of any fluff to fill the paragraphs with.
Anyway I hope you enjoy it and here it is!
Why Cats shouldn’t be banned.
By Lucretia.
General Statement.
There has been a debate lately on whether or not cats should be banned in New Zealand and as you can see from the title of this I do not believe that cats should be banned in New Zealand you will see why but first why are people thinking about banning cats in New Zealand?
Why do people want to ban cats?
There is a village down in the South Island that is planning to ban cats and other parts of New Zealand have thought that this might be a good idea.
The reason they are thinking about banning cats is to try and protect their wild-life as cats are killing many of our native birds and since these birds are so rare we want to save them, but banning cats will not help us with this problem as I will show you now.
Why would banning cats make even more birds die?
You might be wondering ‘What do you mean more birds would die!’ Well let me explain.
If you were to just ban cats it would mean that people couldn’t have cats after their other cats die, but because they wouldn’t be allowed more cats that would mean that stray cats wouldn’t be saved and shelters would most likely stop saving cats meaning that their would be many more strays and this means that all these cats would be killing birds and you might say ‘ okay well even if they were kept these cats would still be killing animals’ but if a cat is owned then it is less likely to kill animals because the cat/s can be taught while if they are wild no one will be looking after it and teaching it not to kill these animals.
Cats also multiply very quickly meaning if they are just left out in the wild more and more cats would just keep coming meaning more and more strays and more and more birds would be dying because cats are natural hunters and this is what they do so just because you ban them does not mean that they are gone.
What could we do to save these native birds instead of banning cats?
I personally think that instead of banning cats we could save these birds and bring them somewhere will they will be safe to live and breed without having cats being able to get to them because this way hopefully everyone would be happy because people could keep their cats and have cats and the native birds would be safe and most likely there would then also be more of each species because they would be breed in these areas.
So yes I think that doing this would be much better than banning cats because while cats might have some bad things about them they still have good things that come with them and a lot of people really love cats and banning them would make lots of people really sad while doing this means everyone will be happy as I have said multiple times.
Evaluation.
Now that I have shown why Cats shouldn’t be banned I hope you all feel the same way about making nature reserves instead of banning cats, hopefully you enjoyed and goodbye!
