Linus the cat has been accused of harassing chipmunks. Linus' owner, Jody Lay, alleges her neighbor, who was angry about this activity, caught the cat and drove west 10 to 15 miles to Lily Lake or Virgil in western Kane County before letting it out. (Photo courtesy Matt Lay)

People should not allow their pets to roam unless they have a farm or their own acreage.

I certainly hope the woman who let her cat roam free is ticketed for that AND that the woman who committed the theft is charged.

Send Linus over here - chipmunks are building a condo underneath our rock garden. Just mail ordered some repellent that is made from fox urine, hope it works.

If the cat owner kept it on their own property, there would have been no problem.
How can they charge the person if the cat is merely “missing”? Cats take off on their own all the time.

My tiger cat killed everything in sight. GUILTY. 15 miles, it will walk back if it doesn’t find better hunting grounds.

Harassing is a cat's job. Get over it!

I just caught a feral cat in my live trap a couple days ago. Damn thing would come up on my deck in the middle of the night to torment my indoor cat......
In the past I'd relocate them but I thought I'd try something new with this one. I hosed him down pretty darn good then released him. I'll be surprised if he shows up on my deck again..... Hopefully he'll at least do his part with the rabbit problem around here.

I do have a lot of yard and my cat does roam and one of the reasons we have a cat is to kill chipmunks. It works. Our neighbors complain that their decks are undermined and chewed up. Chipmunks carry diseases including the plague and my cat has all his shots and is chipped. He weighs enough that the wild animals don’t bother him and he insists, loudly, on being put in the basement with his food at 9 p.m. He has his job to do but does it early in the morning. Doesn’t bring the critters home but we have noticed that during the spring and early summer he doesn’t eat as much cat food.
