She said she wanted to draw attention to feral cat problem
A New Castle woman is tired of the feral cats on Cedar Street. Rochelle Smolnik said they threaten her children and are dangerous.
“He had a broken tail and his leg was all scratched up,” her 8-year-old daughter, Lily Smolnik, said, “And he hissed at me and he started to growl at me too and he had white stuff all coming out of his mouth.”

The mother was so frustrated, that she sounded off on Facebook.
One post read: “F.Y.I. to all neighbors on Cedar, if your animal dog/cat is running lose (sic), using my yard as a litter box and eating my garbage, they will soon disappear!!! I cannot help it if they eat yummy sleeping pills dipped in tuna or peanut butter out of my garbage on MY porch (where they should not be in the first place) I hope you understand.”
That post launched a flurry of replies and shares. Many outraged that Smolnik would threaten to poison animals.
“Oh, yes, we were definitely trying to create drama,” Smolnik said. “Drama was a wildfire on Facebook.”
Smolnik said she was trying to draw attention to the problem. She does agree with feral cat programs that catch, neuter, and release cats back into the world. She also has had conflict with other programs that euthanize animals that are sick or dangerous.
So, the cat problem continues on her street.

that comment is probably somewhere in the middle of the intelligence spectrum in the vast wasteland that is facebook.

You ARE aware that there really IS such a thing as CatBook and DogBook, right?
My dog gets emails all the time. No. Lie. My cats are all dead - but not due to this whack job. ;)

“He had a broken tail and his leg was all scratched up,” her 8-year-old daughter, Lily Smolnik, said, “And he hissed at me and he started to growl at me too and he had white stuff all coming out of his mouth.” Yeah... No.
And he had a gun and was conservative.
I'm inclined to believe the kitteh over an 8 eight year old kid or the kid's harpie mother.

I was on Facebook for a short while. It was so idiotic I closed my account. The most amazing thing to me is people who post their own stupid, immoral, or illegal behavior in public.
