By Connecticut law, dogs are considered property and can thus be owned. Cats differ on both counts, and by law are considered feral, regardless of their breeding or whether they have ever even been outdoors. Legally, they are not property and can not be owned.
This legal peculiarity has clear advantages for you. If the cat that lives with you scratches the neighbor's eyes out you can simply say - "Sorry about your misfortune, but he's not my cat.."
Turkeys can fly, but can not drown by looking up into the rain. Anyone who believes they can should try it themselves. During the next heavy downpour, go outside and stand for one hour looking straight up at the sky. It is best to do this in a highly visible and public place. Just in case I'm wrong. And you find yourself in trouble.
