Killer Cats And The Caring Liberals Who Kill Them Back

[USA4ME]

It is not okay for cats to kill all the neighborhood birds.
  
I’m living next to a killer named Frankie. He’s black-and-white and sweet as cats go; he’s also a menace that nobody talks much about, though feral and free-roaming housecats like Frankie have become a tragic problem all over the world.

Every year in America, cats, many of them well-fed pets, kill about 12.3 billion mammals and 2.4 billion birds. When you open the door, your friendly furry feline transforms into a miniature terrorist. It’s as if outdoor domestic cats are an invasive species, predators that are pampered and subsidized by doting owners.

Feral cats are an even bigger problem. In the United States, there are some 60 million unwanted cats. No wonder: With a survival rate of 2.8 kittens per litter with continued breeding, two cats can become 3,822 cats in just four years.

Frankie belongs to my neighbors. We live in a small southern Idaho community, surrounded by sagebrush foothills and lots of wildlife. A marsh hosts red-winged blackbirds and assorted ducks. Deer wander past my window daily, as well as the occasional red fox, and quail and pheasant calls fill the air. Red-tailed, Swainson’s, sharp-shinned, and Cooper’s hawks all share the sky with a golden eagle, though not at the same time. The Cooper’s is a particular fixture; I occasionally see him dining on a finch but don’t begrudge him his meal. After all, he’s a native.

That’s where Frankie comes in. His owner opens the door for this well-fed, neutered cat and the carnage begins. First, he digs up my flowerbed to relieve himself, then he hunts.

OK, just up.

But if you go to the hcn.org site where this came from, you get this response from "Nature Advocate."

Nature Advocate

EXCELLENT write-up. But you will find, as does anyone who has dealt with criminally-irresponsible cat-licking neighbors that you will NEVER change their behavior by being considerate about it. They don't give one damn about any other lives on earth, not even your own, not even that of their cats (letting them get ran over by cars and worse). They ONLY use their cats as an extension of their OWN territorial behavior. The cats just being an expendable proxy for this behavior of theirs. There's only ONE thing that finally works.

Following is my lengthy write-up of what I found DID finally work after 15 YEARS of trying to be "nice" about it. Then looking around one day and realizing that there was absolutely NOTHING but cats and rodents left on my lands, the rodents then invading my home.
 
Licensing and laws do nothing to curb the problem. If cats are required to be licensed then cat-lickers just stop putting collars on their cats, as they did by me. And they won't even bother getting them micro-chipped, especially not that They want absolutely nothing that can hold them legally accountable for the actions of their cats. We're not talking about the topmost responsible citizens of the world. They don't want that responsibility of what their cat has done coming back on them. If they had even one iota of a sense of responsibility and respect for all other lives on this planet we wouldn't even be having these discussions.

However, I found something that DOES work, works well, and works fast (relative to the years it takes trying to educate deceitful and lying cat-lickers that accomplishes ABSOLUTELY NOTHING). Where I live cat-lickers have learned that _ALL_ cats, stray and feral, collared or not, ear-tipped or not (because TNR con-artists now just clip cats' ears only, WITHOUT sterilizing or vaccinating them, to protect their hoarded cats from being trapped and euthanized), _ALL_ their cats are shot on sight and buried whenever found away from supervised confinement.

The ONLY thing that works is destroying any of their cats found outdoors off their property. They either learn to stop getting more cats that die under the wheels of cars or from animal attacks, or they finally learn how to be a responsible pet owner, respectful neighbor, and learn to keep their invasive species animal under confined supervision, as it should be. Win win win all around.

You can't train a cat to stay home but I found that, in time, you CAN train a cat-owner into being a responsible pet-owner and a respectable neighbor. Most of them are so phenomenally stupid, disrespectful, and criminally irresponsible though that you have to make at least 12-15 of their cats permanently disappear before they even start to figure out what they've been doing wrong all during their sorry, useless, and pathetic lives. (Though the ones by me who were adopting "barn cats" from "barn-cat programs" were uniquely cretinized and lobotomized. I had to shoot and bury many hundreds of their cats, to stop their cats from annihilating the very last of my native wildlife, before they started to learn.)

If you live where its not legal to use firearms then check into 700-1200fps air-rifles and pointed vermin-pellets. Many of the new ones come with their own sound-suppressor designs built-in, specifically designed for shooting vermin cats in urban areas, the demand is that great. Failing that, then there's always the SSS and TDSS Cat Management Programs that are exploding in popularity worldwide. Shoot, Shovel, & Shut-Up; or Trap, Drown, Shovel, & Shut-Up. Both methods are legal on every square foot of this earth. No local laws were violated if it never happened. (Where cats have already learned to evade all trapping methods, then inexpensive generic acetaminophen (overseas paracetamol) pain-relievers are a more species-specific vermin poison. But you really need to dispose of that cat safely so that wildlife won't die from the many deadly diseases cats spread even after their death.)

I don't see anyone dumping cats where I live anymore. They don't even adopt more than can be kept under lock & key 24/7. When driving through the area I don't see even one cat on anyone's doorsteps anymore. I always keep an eye out to see if there are more free-roaming cats that will have to be shot. And if I'll have to leave fish-oil trails on all the roadsides again, leading right to my IR surveillance system and laser-sighted rifle. (You can read some of the most effective methods I invented to rid my lands of hundreds of these vermin in only two seasons, posted here: americanhunter D0T org/blogs/arkansas-will-trap-feral-cats The eradication so complete and effective that cats are non-existent from my area for nearly 4 years now. Not seen a one.)

Leaving ANY of their invasive species cats outside in my area means certain death for that cat, their further existence can be counted in hours. You'd think everyone else could learn from this simple lesson. The quickest way to solve an unwanted animal and irresponsible pet-owner problem is to let everyone know that you will quickly and humanely destroy every last one of their unwanted, uncared-for, or unsupervised animals for them. They either grow up fast or, far more plausible, dump their animals elsewhere to become someone else's problem.

You just can't be an enabler of criminally irresponsible spineless and heartless idiots -- or they remain that way. (At least where you live, anyway.)

IF THERE ARE NOT DIRECT AND IMMEDIATE IRREVERSIBLE CONSEQUENCES TO THEIR CRIMINALLY-NEGLIGENT AND CRIMINALLY-IRRESPONSIBLE BEHAVIORS AND VALUES THEN THEY LEARN ABSOLUTELY *NOTHING*.
 
In case you are curious -- the term that I use of "cat licker" is justifiably and accurately gleaned from the growing fad of people who are obsessed with cats and want to do everything possible to make their cats feel good at the expense of all that is reasonable and sane.

They are now licking their cats clean.

Since they see a cat fighting back from being washed in water as animal abuse, but the cat not fighting if they use their tongues, they use their tongues instead to wash their cats.

It's just another one of the many aberrant and mentally-ill behaviors of "cat lickers".

I cannot, in all good conscience and honesty, EVER use the term "cat lover" again to describe these heartless and spineless cretins. People who love cats do not throw them under the wheels of moving cars, let them lap-up antifreeze in a gutter, force them to attack one another to fight for territory (no different than people who run dog-fight rings and are just as criminal of animal abuse), or let them be attacked by other animals by letting them roam free. "Cat Lover" is an extremely oxymoronic label. "Cat Licker" is the only one that accurately works today.

Holy Crap!

Wonder how long before "Nature Advocate" tries "trap, drown and shovel" on the neighbors themselves.

I don't like cats so I don't have any.....except the 5 in the yard that don't belong to me and the 6 that a stray decided to have in the car last week just because the wife left her window down......when the wife ain't looking, I am taking some target practice.....CATS?...what CATS?....we don't don't have any CATS.....I guess they're bothering someone else now.

Jeffery Dhamer is that you?

[obumazombie]

So, let me get this straight. True cat lovers shoot and/or drown cats. Got it.

Whoa Nellie, this Frankie sounds like the current pResident of 1600PA.  Half black, half white.  Is this one of those clever memes the leftist are always constructing, a narrative, do the optics work? Sure sounds like some type of subtle sublimation being presented by this obviously racist Dummy.  Skinner and Elad need to convene the Citizen's Jury post hast then grab a rope.  No sir 'ee we can't have this we need a long drop and short rope STAT!

[BlueStateSaint]

Hence, why Oreo stays indoors--despite her desires to go out and kill whatever is in the Town land behind us.

[GOBUCKS]

In many rural areas, it's about as common to dispatch stray cats as foxes or crows.

This poster reminds me of the cat killers way back when that thought they were evil....   Along comes the plague from rats and mice, few cats survived the witch hunts and the plague spread.

The farmers that valued their cats to keep down the rodent population in the grain bins and out side the city survived the plague, as did from what I have read prisoners in jail starving that ate any rat or mouse they could find.

Plague boats came into port, all over Europe , at the time cats were considered bad luck aboard a boat, Wharf rats ran up the lines and settled aboard the boats.   No cats to keep the vermin down, healthy passengers soon became ill .

Who ever spread the rumor that cats were evil and encouraged their deaths  was responsible for 3/4 the world to die of plague.

All things on earth have their place an a reason to be here.

Having watched several movies and shows involving profilers, I consider myself an expert on the subject of serial killers.  And, it seems they all start out on the neighborhood critters.

After my grandfather passed my mom brought home one of the barn cats.  I have no idea what possessed her to do it but she captured it in a burlap sack, then released it in the basement.  This was one feral mean dirty damn cat which she soon asked me to re-capture and dispatch.  I managed to get the thing in a box trap and headed out to the back forty with it and the trusty twenty two.  Now as anyone knows, box traps are not like the 'have a heart traps', they are simply constructed of solid pine board (and probably illegal today) and you have to lift the front to empty the trap.  This is a bit difficult to do with a rifle.   I probably should have grabbed the pistol but live and learn.  That darn cat was out of there and headed for the high country before I could grab the rifle an plug him.  I never did mention that aspect of the day to mom. He never showed back up so something probably got him in the woods anyway.
