My girlfriend that many barn cats and the best hunters were the females. In fact she said some of the girls hunt and take the food to the male...in her pack of barn cats the male was too lazy to hunt or never learned to kill as a kitten......cats hunt by instinct but for some (orphan?) they don’t know how to kill...surprised me when she said that the male wouldn’t hunt and kill.
They are ALL wild as they are perhaps 4th, 5th or even 10th generation feral cats that have never belonged to anyone.
And, I would dare you to call your police station and ask them if they give a d@mn if you capture and relocate any animal. Hopefully, you'll learn something.
My police department handles animal control also and I’m certain they wouldn’t care though they would probably advise me to bring the cats in so they could be destroyed.
Here are my options...
a) I can capture and release them in a different location so they can live their lives w/o stalking and perhaps one day killing my expensive birds.
b) I can capture them and turn them over to the local animal shelter where, as they can never be adopted they would surely be destroyed.
c)I can be irresponsible and do nothing to protect my expensive pet birds and just hope one of these cats does not get them.
I’d prefer “A” but in honor of your ignorance I think I’ll go with option “B” from now on.
Have a nice day.
Just plain Ignorance....
Have a nice day.
Agreed.
