This is all a ruse to lure Johnny Depp’s 2 Yorkies back.

Australia periodically gets inundated with rats in their crop fields. There was something dated 2007 in a google search that proclaimed mouse and rat infestations of “Biblical proportions”.

is it OK to say that if Aussie got rid of their 2 million feral moslems (deported of course, not necessarily deposed of in more lethal ways) they would be far better off...

while cats are said to be “the single biggest threat to MANY of the country’s native species.” the moslems are the single biggest threat to ALL of the country’s natives, human type...

This will definitely help reduce global warming. Less animals to give off body heat, the lower the atmospheric temperature hence global warming is over. It’s settled science now.

It should also serve as reminder for the many idiots out there who never took the time to spay or neuter their cats.

I play softball with a typical liberal fool who recently kidded me that I need to get a kitten to keep my current adult cat company.

Evidently a feral cat that lives in or under his backyard shed recently had ANOTHER litter of kittens. He and his equally stupid wife think its humane to set food out on their back patio to feed the resident cats and raccoons in their highly populated subdivision.

I told him to stop doing that and that if he enjoyed having that female feral around, the least he should do is trap it and take it to a local vet to have it neutered..........

People like this just don't get it.......

I remember that. There were so many mice, the cats finally just sat back and watched them.

Are they going to set two million feral dogs loose?

Astonishing.

He actually hit one.

I’d be thinking more along the lines of 5.56mm ...

"......It was living in an old shearing shed we knew it was there it was killing off our Chickens... We saw him on numerous occasions but were never able to get him in a position where we could get him... The afternoon we got him he was dragging a rabbit it had killed back to the shearing shed.. It was walking forward and straddling the rabbit as it dragged it... it was biting the rabbit on the back of the head... It was an amazing sight actually... The cat was culled with a single shot I'm a big guy of 6ft tall and 140kgs... It's a huge moggy I've never seen one this big before..Jason Rogers".....

If they supply the .22 Cal. CCI “Stinger” Ammo, I’ll do all I can to help out. Think about it, you can compare these feral critters to ISIS, AQAP, Liberals, etc., !
Eagerly awaiting the phone call ! !

Cats?

I thought rabbits were Australia’s second-largest threat (behind muslims).

Is feral cat meat lean, healthy and tasty, like deer meat?

DANG!

So, the Bilby is basically a mole-rabbit-rat-possum?

In Hawaii they capture the cats and spay or neuter them.

I called to complain about the number of cats once and was told that if they got rid of the cats I’d be calling to complain about the rats and mice.

Cats are sometimes useful... mice and rats carry diseases that cats do not
