I live on a farm. We have a decent sized feral cat population. They are an absolute necessity when the fields are turned over. OK, only if one doesn't want mice in the damn house! We keep the cats fed to the point that they stick around and they catch mice, birds, frogs, etc. to supplement themselves.

Where the hell is Ptarmy? I'd figure this would be his area of expertise....

What's worse? Cats or bunnies?

Cats are good watch dogs, many times have the allerted me to a rodent problem that had to be tracked down.

One year the field mice got under our home and were chewing up the electrical wires, we put our two cats under the house with a turkey cooker full of water and turned them loose for 2 weeks.
We never heard any yowling or scratching to get out from the cats, dead silence except the slight sound of scampering tiny feet stopped.

Hubby went nuts after a week, we need to feed the cats, they are starving, these are house cats that will not eat anyting but dry cat food.

 My cats love me, miss me, I know it is just laying there hungry and needing us.  He got really unhappy, comming home and crawling about the skirting calling for the cats.  ------City boy, never had a pet until we met and he was 38 years old at that time.

Wait Dear wait when all rodents are cleaned out the the cats will get hungry and YOW at us.

Sure enough my Main Coon Cats about 2+ weeks began to vocolise and I brought them back into the house both about 5 pounds heaver.   Happy cats, had spent 2 weeks what they were born to do, hunt kill and eat.

We need to save the rat population from cats!  As we all know from the Lybtahrd Doochfase study of 2011 rats are being decimated by evil and terroristic cats roaming freely without GPS collars and deteethandclawifications!!!!!  How can we let this happen!  Rats are beautiful creatures who help clean up after noncaring repukes!  They eat the garbage and then safely recycle it through their digestive systems.  (I love running my fingers through this natural compost and keep a heap of it under my bed!)  The honorable Nancy Pelosio has introduced a bill that will make rats a protected species and ban all ownership of cats unless a person buys a feline guard license for 295.49.  I suggest you support this bill to help save the precious and delightful rat population.  It is so hard for them to breed and raise their adorable babies in the presence of evil killers such as cats!





it is only a matter of time

Cats are terrorists. People think they're their friends, but if they were the same size, we'd be lunch. Dogs, however, well, if they were the same size Bentley and Brutus would probably be drinking a beer with me right now.

Couldn't agree more.  My wife has a different point of view, but of course she's completely wrong.

My cats will go after anything except my baby chicks. And it's a target rich environment. There they are in their little tub in the laundry room, captive, jumping around...the perfect place to play until somebody dies. Yet they never touch them. Not once. Sometimes I'll get up in the morning and find a dead bird (the early one doesn't always get the worm), mouse parts, the occasional mole, but my little chicks & keets, geese & ducklings go on about their life until they're old enough to go out to the brooder pen in the coop.
