Roaming cats

This is what I do.

what do you think they do with them????

Well the cats owner has decided that Fluffball would be too unhappy to live inside the house and decided that the risk of coyotes and mountain lyons was worth it because otherwise it would be unpleasant to live with Fluffball if she was actually in their house. So Fluffballs human is the person who should be worried about what happens to kitties that disappear. Presumably Fluffballs humans would have a collar on her, oh but no they do not because that could strangle her should she get it stuck in a tree branch while killing birds. Well likely then they have her microchipped and will receive a call to pay a fine and pick up poor Fluffball. Or not, either way it is 100% on Fluffballs family not the person who traps her or the coyote who eats her.

Do I come off bitter? Lol, yes I HATE cats. I had one pee in my truck one time and it was the most disgusting smell and it took months to get rid of. But since I hate cats I choose not to have them, yet they still stalk me....

I used carpet tack strips to try to keep the cats from messing with my parakeets. Screwed strips up the sides of the cage. Laid 8 strips in front of the cage. Didn't help at all. They still climbed the cage and sat on the strips in front to watch the birds.

What did work were Scat Matts. They are battery operated. You might be able to get the long narrow one and put it on top of the fence. When the cats jump on they'll get zapped. Only took my cats one zap to leave the parakeets alone.

I CANT DISCLOSE HOW MANY CATS I FEED. The CIA would send Black Helicopters to my location, but as a hint. I go thru a 24 pound bag of Meow Mix every 2 weeks. They ask for it by name.

Most cats I trap are in horrible shape and in need of veterinary care or need to be put down due to severe Injury. People do not realize that allowing a cat especially one that has been declawed to just be an outdoor cat and just leaving food out is not being a good pet owner. These cats are ravaged with fleas and mites and also get into fights with other animals. They are also often exposed to toxic chemicals and poisons. The best thing that can happen to one of these cats is to be taken into a shelter before it's too late so they can get a better home. Not all strays are put down. Also if you want to be that cat person who feeds all the ferals at least be responsible about it and Contact your local shelter about there free spay neuter program. Trap the new cats that come and have them fixed and keep the population down and healthy.

Caveman that's really nice that you help the cats.There is a lady who feeds a colony next to a handee mart near here and one day I caught her and gave her fifty bucks I had won off a scratch off to help feed the cats. She does it rain or shine and honestly I admire her dedication, but she totally acted like I was going to beat her up when I was just trying to help out. Question, do cats over a certain number just make you paranoid as all get out?
