Korean restaurants pay good money for cats.
I've always heard there is more than one way to do it.
I've never seen any tanned domestic feline hides. It must have become something of a lost art.
Wrinkly-faced Shar pai canines are known to give it a whirl though, or one solid chomp in the center of the spine, anyway.
About a month ago two muscled-up pit-bull terriers murdered one of the semi-feral cats that a neighbor lady down & across the street had been feeding, slinging it around, both of the dogs ripping at it, right outside my window. I didn't make it outside fast enough to be able to stop them.
That reminds me --- I should contact the animal control officer who was looking for the two dogs to see if he located them or not.
I'd seen those two before, a couple of times. Two together like that can be dangerous. Although I like dogs, and pits can be good dogs if they have an owner who knows how to train them to not be mean, having a pair the likes of the ones who killed the cat running around is no bueno.
Other cats and small dogs are in danger, and then children too, not to mention possibly adults also.
The control officer mentioned that these sort of dogs were a problem in the area I live in -- it's turned tough, quasi-ghetto in the last few decades.
