What to do about stray cats

Where is Jim Corbett when you need him?

Dead. Been that way for sixty-two years.

I have found a good air rifle to be reasonably effective. A 22 rifle with subsonics or even bb caps is also effective and very quiet. You don't want to scare them after all.

That poor cat is terrified! Who thought this up? Better to give 'em a bath while they're under for the spay/neuter.

Of course I give them a BATH first

Get a fuzzy yard dog from the shelter.
Guards the property and the house...win win.
Instead of treating it like a family pet, let it be a working dog...with a job to do.

That's the ticket. Find a German Wirehair Pointer, Griffon, GSP or mix if you can. My Griffon (Euro versatile breed hunting dog) will kill a stray cat in a heartbeat. They're in the neighborhood but none around my house. They kill squirrels to.

My Wife always complained about stray Cats using Her flower beds as a litter box until one day she notices a big drop in Chipmunks in the yard, Now She only complains when they leave Her a little dead Mouse as a present by the rear deck.

What is it with dogs and kitty McNuggetts?????? Augus loves 'em-Ewwwwwwwwwww..... He'll come into the living room with kitty litter on his nose and we know where he's been...and then he wants to lick my hand.

...be careful Angus doesn't consume too much kitty litter...can be dangerous when it swells up in a dog's stomach...our litter box is where the cat can get to it but the dogs can't...
