Recently, from my desk I heard a commotion and from my window I saw one of cats
had a little bird in it's mouth. The little bird was crying.
I ran outside and got the bird from the cats mouth. I was afraid it was going to die
but fortunately, it was not hurt and it flew into one of the boxwood shrubs.
I have two outside cats and I continued to run them off until they got tired of circling
the shrub. I think the little bird sat in the shrub until dark perhaps, when it was safe
to fly away.
However, while I was removing the bird from the cats mouth, Bob was across the
yard and said 'Let it be, it's probably dead.....leave the cat alone, the bird is probably
dead.....you might as well forget it, it's nature'.
My reply 'I don't call it nature, I call it murder'.
I always hate when people see an animal in the wild or anywhere being harmed and
they say 'It's Nature'.
Well if you find yourself in the mouth of an alligator, should people do nothing but watch
and say 'That's Nature' while you're being ate?
My point is, the earth no doubt goes through cycles but are we going to say 'that's
nature' or are we going to take precautions and preventions? Stop the use of plastics.
Stop the manufacturing pollutions. Stop the fracking.
Nature......hmmmm
