Yes, they live in a garden, they can jump the gate and go outside. On the road.
A pet monkey at Garda lake? Maybe it was owned by a circus?
Donāt worry too much: Sometimes cats are walking around for some days. (There were interesting studies that the territory of a cat is much bigger than the owner thought.) Do your cats have a collar?
Unfortunately not. They are free like birds (!). They are not āmineā, they just decided to stay with me because I feed them and cuddle them
They are free to wander.
I know cats can go away even for years, but Yang is only a few months old. Still too young. Poor kittyā¦
No, it was just one lady. She had him on a leash the whole time except that one time it was sitting alone on the roof of the RV. When it came down I looked at the little guys fingers and marveled at how human they looked. I softly touched them with my index finger, he pulled both hands away and slammed them both full force onto my hand while looking directly in my eyes and screaming at me. Then he ran up a tree.
And that is the story how I was hit by a monkey when I was ten years old.
None of my cat friends ever lived like that. They always went out when they wished. A couple of them (males) didnāt come back after some time. But we rescued another one which lived his last years with us.
Anyway you should live in a good urban environment, with green areas, better if a small city or suburban areas, or even countryside. Chaotic and over-urbanized cities are not good for them (and not even for human beings! )
A thought I often have, and a wish of mine, is that in future there will be a way to have a control of births without having to neuter them (which I tend to avoid, but itās not always possible) especially avoiding to make their wilderness disappear.
I was particularly happy with Olivia that was neutered after having kittens (she was hit by a car and it was too risky to have another pregnancy), and after that she returned to be quite wild, always willing to be out for many hours a day.
And your wish to have a pet monkey is because ofā¦ revenge?
I wanted to have one after I first saw the lilā fella. Not sure if proper revenge would work like that.
@milanfahrnholz According to Guardians of the Galaxy Iām so hipster that 0% of players managed to reach the same result as I:
(It seems rather unlikely thoughā¦ a bug?)
Donāt call Rocket a cat, heāll claw your face off!
I donāt know if monkeys are illegal in Italy nowadays.
I know only two things:
-
even if (or maybe since) I love animals, I donāt have animals anymore. I have the idea that you can love and take care of your pet as much as you can, butā¦ you are having a pet. Iād prefer to live (and to die) wild, than being somoneās pet. Said this, I donāt judge anybody. My family and my wifeās family have lots of pets, and I love all that people anyway . Itās just a personal choice. I donāt understand why having a monkey should be different than having a cat or a dog in a big city, where they canāt even go out alone.

Iāve seen something more strange than a monkey pet, in Italy. I was at elementary school, during an educational trip to the Castle of Milan (please, no easy jokes ). My family hadnāt moved yet, so this must have happened between september 1984 and september 1986. Well, in the courtyard of the Castle there was an oriental guy who had a tiger kitty on a leash! I had the thrilling experience of cuddling it. Thinking about this episode in the next years made me suspect it might even have been a dream, or a fake memory. But I donāt think so, it was quite real. Anyway, the oriental guy looked as a japanese guy, because he had an expensive camera and he was in a large group of other japanese people. He was very elegant, I thought he looked more as a business man than a tourist. Now, if my memory is a genuine one, where did he get his little tiger? In Italy? And, if he came with the tiger all the way from Japan, how did he manage to import it?
Never understimate the power of smugglingā¦
Nope, but one of the elders cat gave birth another 2 kittens.
I donāt think the game provided me the optionā¦ anyway, Iāll probably play ep 5 sometime later this week.
Smells like teen spirit?
