Cats shot by neighbour

So rather than justify your prejudices and preconceptions or counter my points with reasoned arguments you’re resorting to silly faces now that you can no longer insult me.
That tells me all I need to know.

The Joule is a unit of measurement of energy, not velocity.

Velocity is a rate of change of position, so it'll always be expressed in terms of distance per unit time e.g. metres per second, miles per hour etc.

I'm sure it also came up about all the other wildlife that defecates in your back garden too.

Plenty of feral cats about too, estimated to be around 200k in Ireland.

I am not defending the shooting of your cats in any way shape or form but the thing about it is people get cats and expect them to be everyone elses darling. If i choose to be pet free and play in the garden with my child, there ia no reason that someone elses owned animal should poo on my lawn

Not all poop is created equal

Or delivered at ground level.

My point exactly

I find your replies on this thread surprising. Because wild animals do it, doesn’t exempt you from your cat’s nuisance.

I condemn what the neighbour does to the cats but if your cat impacts other people, don’t be surprised some of them are ready to take further actions.

Why should I pay the price for a decision you took?

It isn’t surprising but you also have some people that don’t see an issue with their cats going around hunting and digging to leave small “gifts” in other people’s garden.

Tell me, can you distinguish a feral cat's poop from a poop done by someone's pet?

You're making some pretty big assumptions here about my cat being a "nuisance" so I'll share this much. My cats (2) have a large litter box in the house which they both use daily and they are kept indoors at night. They don't spend a lot of time outdoors but they are allowed outside. Both wear brightly coloured collars with identity tags and loud bells and are microchipped to me as the registered owner. All my neighbours know them and know they belong to me, and I haven't had a single complaint about them pooping on anyone's lawn, so make of that what you will.

But also know that I won't keep them confined against their nature to suit any neighbour who is simply paranoid about cats.

So I'll leave it at that.

How can he be sure he is addressing ppl who all hunt 'legally', their could be some ppl that dont hunt 'legally'?

And is hunting / hurting cats legal, which is what the thread is about?

And if these 'legal' hunters support hunting / hurting cats then they are indeed hunter freaks?

That's a bit unfair, they won't be kept in against their nature so tough titty to your neighbours. And if I had an issue with a cat **** in my garden the last thing I'm going to do is contact the neighbour because when the cat disappears guess who suspect nr. one is going to be?

I had an issue in my last house with cats pooping in flower beds/pots etc.

I didn't mind the cats, neighbour had about 6! But didn't appreciate the poop. I spread this green jelly stuff I got in the hardware shop 'stay off' or something like that. Threw it around the flowers, problem solved.

Never saw a mouse or rat in all my time there either🙂

Have a neighbour who's house is built on an embankment so overlooks my garden by about 5 meters. I used have a small dog, confined obviously to her own garden but there are lots of feral cats in the area which apparently were using neighbours garden as a toilet.

For some reason neighbour decided it was my tiny dog (chihuahua) which was climbing a five meter wall to take a dump in her veg patch and decided to confront me about my dog's crap in her garden. I did my best to explain that it didn't belong to my dog but then I started receiving frozen parcels of feces being hurled at my roof. It gives me some small pleasure to think that someone bagged up feral cat poo and placed it in their freezer so they could drop a sh?t bomb on someones house.
