One bit me the other day after I pet him, be careful!
We don t have those in French-speaking Switzerland 😭😭😭
we weren’t supposed to, it’s cats fault, they apparently ran out pettings again.
They own the country and i am a proud slave
We have an Orange Boy in Wengen who visits our flat every time we go <3
My dad who lives in Switzerland tells me always that cats walk around in the country like kings and are not afraid of people because they are well cared for.
This is really a big plus and also the ducks
nice cars
Is this Lauterbrunnen?
>Uncontrolled cat populations repeatedly pose problems in animal welfare enforcement. These include inadequate care provided for groups of cats by their owners and free-roaming cats without owners. Unlike in some surrounding countries, there is neither a registration nor a compulsory sterilization requirement for cats in Switzerland. For planning possible control measures, it is essential to understand the extent of the problem. The Association for Pet Food provides a relatively reliable population estimate for cats kept as pets. According to this, there were 1,853,759 cats in Switzerland in 2022 [1]. Compared to 2012, the cat population has increased by 25%. However, there are no reliable estimates for the number of uncontrolled cats not kept as pets. Animal welfare organizations such as the Swiss Animal Protection (STS) and the Network for Animal Protection (NetAP) conduct sterilization campaigns for such cat populations. However, more information is needed on how many animals per year are involved and what proportion of the affected population is covered by these actions. In the media, an estimate of 100’000 to 300’000 animals has been cited repeatedly, but no reliable source was found for this number.
