MEMORANDUM ***

Before the magistrate judge, Troy and Ashli Bjugan argued that the losses for which they seek recovery did not fall within the policy’s exclusion for losses either consisting of, or directly and immediately caused by “domestic animals,” because the cats hoarded by their tenant were not *790 domestic animals. They have abandoned that argument on appeal. They argue instead that their policy is ambiguous as to whether it excludes from coverage all damage directly and immediately caused by domestic animals, or only such damage that is predictable and preventable and thus akin to ordinary wear and tear. We need not decide whether this argument was adequately presented to the magistrate judge because, in any event, it is unavailing. Read in the context of the policy as a whole, see Hoffman Construction Co. of Alaska v. Fred S. James & Co. of Oregon, 313 Or. 464, 836 P.2d 703, 706-07 (1992), the domestic-animals exclusion unambiguously excludes coverage for all losses directly and immediately caused by domestic animals. The canon of noscitur a sociis does not support the Bjugans’ narrower reading of the domestic-animals exclusion. Indeed, such a reading would render that exclusion superfluous, as another provision of the policy expressly excludes losses caused by or consisting of ordinary wear and tear. See Cain Petroleum Inc. v. Zurich American Insurance Co., 224 Or.App. 236, 197 P.3d 596, 600 (2008).

Because the policy unambiguously excluded coverage for losses directly and immediately caused by cats, we conclude that the magistrate judge did not err by entering summary judgment for the defendant.

AFFIRMED.
