I think we must realize to be very careful to not invade another's space with our pets and try to encourage our children to teach their children to behave in ways that others find some enjoyment in them. Try to put ourselves in the frame of mind of those complaining. TRY to understand their point of view and do not trespass on their property. They don't know or love our pets and may not if they did know them. They have a right to not have to step in poo on their own land.
A wonderfully reasoned reply.

We have a cat. Some people don't like cats. I don't know why but it doesn't matter. Nobody has to have any interaction with out cat unless they choose to come into our home.
