I like cats, but.......

... ..... I don't tolerate their damage, either. We have two... . and they go outside in a fenced yard wearing a harness and a tether. Don't laugh, my cats don't crap in your yard or scratch anyone's rigs. That said, some of you must live where you get good municipal services... ..... our animal control or local humane society would laugh at you if you asked them to come out over this.



Feral cats get shot or buy a havahart trap for $30 bucks, use a can of tuna, then trap and take the feral ones to animal control who will euthanize em in a few days.



If you catch a neighbors cat, wait until dark, then douse the critter with some pure skunk scent that bowhunters use ($2. 00 bottle), then hit him with VERY strong OC spray (aka pepper spray) then open the cage and let him go. Last time I saw this happen the offending puddy tat ran in the doggy door of the neighbor's house and up into momma's lap at the dinner table :eek: :eek: Point made, and no more puddy tat problems with the ignorant neighbor.

Man, coming from a cat lover that just sounds down right mean! I will have to rememeber that one. :D
 
Ours

Our cats live outside during the day and inside during the night. If you fix a cat, most of the time they stick near the house and don't go running around the neighborhood making a nuisance of themselves. Most of the time mine can be found on the porch snoozing in the lawn chairs. Yes, they do get curious when a strange auto pulls up to the house and sometimes have to check it out, but I have never seen any permanant damage done to a paint job by a cat. Unless some idiot goes screaming and running towards them while they are exploring. If someone is that particular about their paint job, the vehicle shouldn't be on the street! I have more damage done by dogs jumping on the sides of the truck, than by cats anyday.



If a cat is making a nuisance of itself, inform the neighbor and don't let it become a insurmountable problem that destroys the neighborhood. I have told my neighbor about their dogs and it hasn't helped so far. But, the air horn keeps them at bay.
 
Catch the cats in a cage and tie an empty Coke can to their tail. They will take off running forever trying to get away from the clanking can :D :p .

One time, on a dare, I tied two cat's tails together, and hung them over a clothesline... WOW! the things they do to each other! Y'all non cat lovers should try it sometime! I know I am going to catch hell for this!

This really happened.........

A little off topic... ... . my neighbor went out to run his tractor for some field work, and it started acting funny, making loud screeches and the sound of belts squealing under the hood... ... ... so he shuts it down, pops the hood (aka the cowling), and all this white fur floats out! Further examination shows a BALD cat wedged between a pulley and belt... ... . cat wasn't moving or making any noise. So, after a bit of work he removed said cat from the engine. The cat was basically "bald" from where the belt(s) got him... ... and felt like a limp dish rag. Seeing no collar and believing it was dead, he walks over to the drainage ditch, and winds up and lobs it into the ditch. He turns to walk back to the tractor and out of the corner of his eye catches a movement-----a big hawk came down off a power pole and was headed for the cat, WHO HAD COME BACK TO LIFE AFTER HITTING THE COLD WATER... ... ..... before my pal could really do anything (like what?) the hawk grabs the cat, and with a great deal of effort, gets altitude and heads off to a grove of trees with the squirming bald cat in his talons!!!



I guess puddy used up all 9 lives on that one... .....



If people controlled their pets we wouldn't be having this discussion I suppose... ... ... .



oh well... ...

I don't think I have ever had a problem with any of my neighbor's because of their pets. I have however had a situation that ticked me off. I had my truck parked in a homeowners driveway with my window rolled down. Apparently while I was working over the course of a couple hours, somebody's cat climbed inside my trcuk and decided to leave muddy paw prints all over the inside. I had prints on the dash and all over the seats.



Wow I envy you for just having paw prints. While I was in college, I left the window down on my '74 bug. A tomcat got inside and sprayed the back seat. You could still smell it several years later on a hot summer day if the windows were up.



Before we moved out in the country where the coyotes take care of the cats, we had someone next street over who was an animal collector. For whatever reason, the toms enjoyed spraying my front porch. I built a trap and caught ~50 cats over a couple of years. At the beginning I could get 3 or so a day. All I had to do was call animal control and say "I got you another cat. " They knew my voice.
 
Funny stuff.

charlan, Your right I would probably have to bring a magnifying glass and tweezers to find anything to glue! Wouldn't want to spoil anything fun for the children.



I told you I wouldn't post on the childrens thread "Great smoke storys" and I won't. You sure like abusing animals and pickups. Maybe its because they don't fight back.
 
Well I guess I'm gonna have to clean this up. When I hit submit it came back and said I had to many images to take some out. So I go back to it and the note is blank. So now I have to start all over if I can remember what I said. I guess I better put it in with out all the images:D We got 1 cat that I found in the ditch when it was raining about 10-11 yrs ago(how long do these things live?)So I pick it up and take it to the house(mistake). Naturally wife and daughter fall in love with cat. What makes me so mad is that after I have washed/waxed car/truck there are these paw prints from it walking around or skid marks on windshield from it sliding down. I came out of house one day and there was cat on top of truck. I said a few words cat comes off truck and trots to pasture. I run inside and get single shot 20g(snake charmer) and shoot at cat. This time I shot over its head just to scare it and it runs off in brush. But next time????I remember when we first got cat pig boy(sister in laws husband)volunteers to remove cats nuts. We stick cats head in boot and while I'm holding him pig boy(raises hogs)removes his balls. When he finishes he wants to pour antiseptic on the incision he made so he grabs bottle of rubbing alcoholic and pours it on cut. Boy did that cat come alive. I could not hold him. And cat lives. I guess this is my punishment he walks on cars,trucks,seat on mule,tractor seat,gets in rafters in garage and jumps down on work bench and knocks things down.
 
I would say that he is paying you back for his lost toys, if you pay the Vet the worst the cat will do is blame the clinic or the vet, not you. ;)

:--) Holy backwards Tish!!!! And I thought that I had the occasional "bad day!" :eek:
 
Rogue Ram,



You are my hero, now I've just gotta get a jug of skunk juice. Got a stupid neighbor that won't take care of their animals, cats or dogs. A couple of'em went for a ride with animal control, but those folks just go out and get another poor pet.
 
Bottle of Rickard's Skunk scent at your local sporting goods store will run you under $5. 00... ..... about the size of an iodine bottle.



Won't hurt kitty but will REALLY get the point across to the bozos.



:D



Regards,

I remember the story my Grandfather and his brother told me when I was growing up. They lived on a farm and their neighbor had just moved in and discovered he had a major cat problem. He told my grandfather that there was over 100 cats that needed to be removed from his property. He told those two(grandfather and brother) that he would pay 10 cents a piece for the removal. They caught what they could by hand, stuffed them in a sack, drowned them, then cut their tails off as proof of each cat. the rest they shot with . 22 rifles. Today they would be in trouble, back then they were praised. A few cats on the farm is a good thing. Too many and they are like varmits.



I like cats, but only outside ones, who leave me alone, and my truck alone. Indoor cats are just plain nasty. They crawl all over everything with their kitty litter feet, and sit on everything. Watch a cat sit sometime. They sit with their rectum on the item they are sitting on. Peoples houses that have cats are usually nasty. They usually are covered inside with hair, cat germs, and dander. And most cat LOVERS(3 or more cats) remind me of trekkies and people who wear foil on their heads.



I myself have had an outdoor cat, whom I liked, and only came to me and my son when called. I dont hate cats, I just think they have their place. That is outdoors, in very limited numbers, off my truck.

I dont have anything against killing niuscence cats, or wild cats, I just dont like the torturing of them.
