This sounds odd when applied to a cat, but cats in Spain do not enjoy their odd legal status that they have in the UK, where the neighbour's cat seems to have the right to use your seedbed as a toilet.

If you feed a cat which is loose, a claim that a cat does not belong to you is not valid, because it is illegal to feed any feral animal.
