Reply To: Frum Jews and animals: why can't they get along together?

cats in eretz yisrael are like ants or fleas to the rest of the world. israeli kids view cats the way a kid in lakewood views a fly. its not a big deal, though im not saying its right. i would never let anyone in my family touch a cat here, and ive had to kick them a couple of times, when cats come straight out of sewage and try to rub up against you.
