They kill mice and rats too.
Who the frak comes up with this type garbage?! What a frakin’ waste.... =.=
Then one day the problem was solved permanently.
The crap that passes for blogs these days. What a loon. My cats are serial killing death machines but not birds. Mice and chipmunks who would otherwise wind up in my house.
They do their job and I do mine.
Science is NOT a friend of liberals.
H*ll, the two are not even on speaking terms.
Let’s see which is more environmentally harsh, rodent pellets or cats? My cat catches many rodents and since he’s a big cat (17 lbs with little to no fat), he also keeps away the raccoons. Hunting rabbits, raccoons and mice with pellet guns doesn’t really do the trick and using rodent pellets would poison the environment and make the food in my garden inedible. Sorry, kitty stays. My kitty doesn’t contain rat poison...
I don’t have a cat. I have a neighbor’s cat, he’s my buddy. Two ways to go with a cat. The cat can manage you or you can manage the cat.
Cats are part of the environment, for cryin out loud.
More environmental wackoism.
If you look at anything through a large enough magnifier; it’s HUGE! This is a non-problem. I’ve had cats my entire life. Mostly, they didn’t mess with birds. Oh, I had one who’d get them riled up and then swat them out of the air when they attacked, but mostly they eat rodents. If you’re feeding them they seldom even eat the rodents, they just catch them. I’m all for rodent population reduction.
We live in an age where the requirement for problems is insatiable. Problems sell products. Remember the made up “heartbreak of psoriasis?” This is one problem we don’t need to take on. Especially, we don’t need a $10,000,000 government study on the impact of feral cats to ecosphere.
And to those of you who own cats and live in urban areas, but allow them to roam freely, you are a feral human.
Keep your damn cat in your home, or don't whine when something happens to it. If you want to be a good neighbor, then act like it.
The only cat we ever had, spent it's entire life in our home without ever walking on our neighbors car, crapping in their yard, screaming wildly outside a bedroom window at 2AM, spraying urine on the hedge right next to our entrance...etc.
Hi smokingfrong!
That blog is in a newspaper that is in my homestate. What was Ms. Campbell SMOKING at the time!?
Also with Slings and Arrows not being able to do much in the way of PINGING, I did ask to take over on a temp basis for the kitty pings.
Attach windmills onto their back sides for a double threat...
Cat was fine until she started bringing in her trophies alive. The day she deposited a live snake to the living room (snake, meet cast iron skillet) was the last of her outside hunting days. The smaller dog now takes care of anything that moves in the yard. Just a few nights ago, she was playing catch with a freshly killed coon.
