For me it's not safe to let my cats out. They can get in to fights and get diseases and get hit by cars. Used to let my cats out in the past and one caught feline leukemia (which is fatal) from a stray cat and it spread to other cats so I don't let them out anymore.

A few cats use our drive and back area as a cut through to other gardens to go prowling as cats do leaving their waste occasionally.

When on a seashore I walk on a spectacular pathway along/above the sea. Grass/bushes/trees are right on both sides of it, but the pavement is all covered with dark stains I know the origin of: I saw locals "dump" their dogs right under the feet. Couldn't (chose not to) interfere as it was like their land (a foreign country to me). When choosing (custom build ) sunglasses I opted to order polarized for added safety.

Good idea to have the polarised sunglasses in that case, the last thing you want is to step on those stains.
