THIS is why cats etc are not coming into my retreat after TSHTF

[NorthernRaider]

I got banned from other forums for advocating a zero tolerence to fur and feathers coming near retreats, I even do my best to forcibly disuade critters like cats from coming into my property now because AFTER TSHTF and their owners are dead or missing the filthy parasitic felines and stray mutts will look for other people to feed them, and christ knows what they have stood in, rolled in or eaten, or what type of flea is riding on the critters back.

Imagine a cat that has walked through the fluids leaking from rotting bodies and then walks into your kitchen? Or a dog that was starving and eats from a rotting corpse, perhaps one that succumed not to the disaster but to Typhus, Thyphoid, Cholera, TB Bubonic or Pneumonic plague etc. Or a carrio crow, wood pigeon, Magpie or any other scavenger that eats something diseased then takes a dump on your garden foodstuffs.

I do think to a certain degree ones own pet cat or dog could be kept must theres no way on earth they should be allowed in the house AFTER TSHTF, but Providing your moggie is kep in your garden to keep other vermin out, or your dog to act as a ratter / security hound, Maybe some way of accomodating them could be worked out. Personally though I could not take that risk cos i have kids to think about and kids immune systems do not fully develop until they reach their late teens.
