I was very sorry to read Jennifer Azzopardi's letter (November 15) where she wrote that "killer" dogs killed her pet cat.

Being an animal lover who treats his pets like members of the family I can understand what she went through.

However the dogs are not killers. Unfortunately, abandoned by evil, human look-alikes dogs do end up having to try and survive and unfortunately they see cats as prey. Would you have called your cat a killer if it killed a mouse? I know I wouldn't. Cats see mice as natural prey.

Do not blame dogs for trying to feed themselves - blame people who don't feed them and people who mistreat and abandon them, leaving stray dogs with no option but to try and survive on their own.
