I'm so old I Remember when:

I do NOT need "a touch of femininity" in my pants.

Nope. Not gonna say it.

When seatbelts were "optional" equipment

And not every vehicle had seatbelts

They are not happy with the cat eating chicken feed, but cant do anything about it.

They can't keep their cat inside? I'm going back and forth between thinking your neighbors are lazy about taking care of their own pets and don't really care about their health.

Adviced me to use a water pistol to shoot at her when she sneaks into the chicken run.

So according to your neighbors, the burden is on you to sit outside your coop with a non-lethal weapon waiting to dispatch their pet instead of them taking responsibility for its disruptive behavior. Do they think you have nothing else to do with your time?

And even with my big pockets my phone is still oversized. I NEED SMALL PHONES.

It may be time to think about cargo pants or BDUs.

My current bank gives out lollies to the kids and treats to dogs - after asking permission, of course.

They may still here in mobile

My grandchildren live in Texas

How do you eliminate a cat and not kill it?
And how do you keep a cat thats allowed to go outside on your property?

I suppose another solution to try is to keep the main stash of your chickens's feed inside the house or in a lidded metal bin and only portion out enough for breakfast, then later in the day an afternoon snack, and some before bed, returning what they don't finish in a given set time back to the bin. It'd mean a bit more work for you but they'll get used to it and the cat won't have access.

Do you have a rooster? I've never had one but hear they can be quite protective.

Most of my skirts don't have pockets...I used to wear a vest or coat whenever I went out, no matter how hot, to keep my keys and phone in. My new phone is too big for the pockets. I wish phone companies would realize not everyone wants mini ipads!

I use a small crossover purse to hold my cell
if what I am wearing has no pockets or the pockets are too small when I walk to the laundry room, mailbox, dumpster

Most of my skirts don't have pockets...

I've been known to use a needle and thread to sew hidden pockets into seams. Making clothes for my Barbie dolls and baby dolls as a youngster continues to pay off.

There is that, however, summer is on its way.
