Found this by chance .. was looking for something else...
This is really very emotional, because of the sentiment it is expressing.
Have they shown it yet on TV, I don't know but wonder if it is too heart wrenching to be shown.

I'm not sure that I want to watch it (whatever it is), Mrs LB, but without a link, I don't seem to be able to anyway!
I read somewhere that Australia is thinking of bringing in a law that will force cat owners to keep the cats indoors; if not, they will have to be on a lead. I'll have a look for the link.

sorry will try again

try this
Here it is but it's a council in Oz, not the govt. And it was announced 12 months ago.

^^^ Australia isn't a cat-friendly country, 10CS. The government there announced a plan in 2015 to kill two million cats by 2020:

Knew there was a reason why I didn't want to live there when I had the chance.

Oops.. don't know what happened ...

That wouldn't work around here I am glad to say.
That's really not what I wanted to see on tonight of all nights, Mrs LB.

Two years ago, on 8th November, I started putting 'missing cat' leaflets through the doors of all the houses in my area because I'd not seen my beloved Biscuit since the evening of the 6th. I'd only leafleted the first few houses when someone called the number on the flyer to tell me that a ginger cat had been killed by a car on the road next to my house the day before. So today was already a very sad day for me before you posted :(

RIP Biscuit:

The last time I was in Freo it had really gone downhill which is a pity because it was a pleasant place to visit before.

So sorry Buenchico.
Beautiful cat
One of my present cats is a ginger tom.
All my cats were acquired somehow without my choosing them.
Breaks my heart everytime we lose one but still continue to give my love to them for as long as I can.
The thing is, 1ozzy, what all cat owners say is: 'Yes, but it's not my cat that's doing it. He would never harm anything'

I've said on here a few times that the domestic cat is the biggest threat to small wild life in this country, but I'm only echoing the RSPB and other organisations. Cat owners refuse to believe it. Well, they would wouldn't they? What's that? The report doesn't mention domestic cats, only feral cats? I honestly believe the feral aspect is inborn and never leaves the cat.
i tend to agree 10cs. I had a cat for 16 years and knew that it was out on the prowl catching small birds, and other wildlife.
it only brought one tiny bird home, which i thought was dead, but it survived and flew away, much to my relief.
If cats just did the part that most people want them to do, ie, keep the mice and rats down, there wouldn't be a problem would there? But they also kill birds, rabbits etc.
I’m sorry for Buenchico.

MrsLadyBug, I can’t watch heart rending things about cats or children or anything really.

My cat doesn’t go out at all. I know some people say it’s cruel to keep a cat indoors, but my cat is happy, I’m happy and the birds in the garden are not getting killed.
with all the doom and gloom about today do we really need a very depressing christmas advert ,i think not
its quite grim really, i watched it through and thought not a happy Christmas ad.
Wow I feel so warm and Christmassy after watching that ad on a cold rainy morning in early November.

It’s as bad as those charity Christmas cards depicting a sad picture.
I am like you Clo - cannot watch anything re children and all animals. Just makes me very sad.

I am sorry Chris to hear of the anniversary of Biscuit (cute name)
