Stray Animals

 

Some residents have noticed a sudden increase in the number of stray cats and dogs in the area. The streets are littered with cat food as people are feeding these cats. In addition, there are also reported cases of joggers being bitten by stray dogs.

 

Something has to be done to prevent things like this from happening because it might affect us or we might catch a virus that makes us ill from the stray animals that may be non-sterile.

 

 

 Having more stray animals on the streets will lead to:

1. Rabies - it is a fatal disease which can transmit into humans from bites of the animals.

 

2. They are also constantly in search for food, and people who pity them will start feeding them, which leads to the increase in litter or they will go around scavenging for food which is unhygiene.

 

3. They have a lot of parasites on their body which might infect people making them carriers of a virus.
