Seagulls are rats with wings, and people feeding them have made them fearless.

Apparently this cartoonist doesn't understand cats and their nine lives.

“A gull nailed part of his cap and face.”

There is a reason Seagulls are not so affectionately referred to as “Sh-thawks”.

All 3 of our cats are rescues. One is a feral it took us a year to tame. Great story, beautiful baby!

“a seagull flew by and snatched a French fry right out of my grandson’s hand.”

The SOB’s mug little kids at the Fleischacker Zoo ( SF city Zoo) for their French Fries and hot dogs.

I hear they can't burp and Alka Selzer is your friend, just sayin’

Looks more like something the cat dragged in, than vice-versa.

My wife operates a wildlife rescue here in N. Idaho - mostly orphaned white tail fawns but we’ve rehabilitated moose and elk calves and the occasional mule deer fawn.

A few years ago she got a call from some people who saw a newborn fawn being carried by the head in the talons of a bald eagle. The eagle dropped it on a big rock outcropping in their back yard. I don’t know if that dandified vulture were trying to kill it or just could not hold on any longer.

When we got the little guy back to the barn his jaw was broken and his head was all torn up from the talons. He could not suck bottle but he learned to lap up milk from a dish like a cat. We called him Cliffie. It took 3 weeks of antibiotics and irrigation to get the infection out of those head wounds but he made it.

That is s amazing! It sounds as if you have a real cat whisperer on your hands ; ) ourvferal has been spayed & is spoiled......loves pets & rubs, but really does not like being held. When we travel to the in-laws this summer we will board all 3. A first for her & I predict craziness just trying to get her to the vet.

Torties are the best, along with tuxedos. Which is just exactly what I have! My youngest (10 months) has learned how to open and shut the bedroom door. When she doesn’t want the other cats in the bedroom, she just locks them out. Every once in awhile at night i hear the door creak closed, followed by growling from the other side. Intervention is sometimes needed.

Seagulls are evil, especially when nesting. Made that patrol check at Toyota of Santa Cruz quite the chore.
