Beautiful - but please can all the cat owners put a bell on their cat? finding dead birds during nesting season because a new more pet cats in the neighbourhood

Great initiative - and it was a tough one given the level of lobbying from vested interested ( tobacco, pubs etc) at the time. It has saved lives - but vaping need to be controlled now ( met a young woman yesterday who never smoked but says the flavoured vapes got her hooked).
