Cat Leash Law

Obnoxious cats laughed at us when dog leash law fever spread throughout this country’s cities, but now we canines are the ones chuckling as the first kitty leash law shot comes across the bow. If it passes, cats can say goodbye to freelance pooping and hello to being watched while doing their business.

(Howard Feiner is so annoyed with the cat droppings in his yard, he has logged the kitties’ leavings and put flags up to mark the spots. He has done this for a couple of reasons.

He’s in court with his neighbor...

"People who have pristine lawns and kill cats that walk kill indiscriminately on their pristine property are losers rugged individualists protecting their property."

There I fixed it.

What if your neighbors had a horse, and the horse would trample, crap on, and destroy some of your property. Would you have a problem with that?

[lormand]

"People who have pristine lawns and kill cats that walk on their pristine property are losers. They are shallow, miserable human beings."

I got this lil' goodie off of your profile page...

"Name-calling is a form of ad hominem attack that draws a vague equivalence between a concept and a person, group or idea. By linking the person or idea being attacked to a negative symbol, the propagandist hopes that the audience will reject the person or the idea on the basis of the symbol, instead of looking at the available evidence."

Shall I rewind the tape and post each and every name you called me just on this thread?

Relying on emotion will trip you up every time. Have a little common sense lady. Keep your property where it belongs, on your property.

I didn't call 'you' anything...unless you're killing cats on your pristine lawn? Here.....watch this....YOU will LOVE it! I'll bet you know these people? Dogs on my land must die Heroes of yours?

What he needs is a good BB gun.

Cats plinked with a good sting learn to stay away.

A BB gun will train cats.

[Fawn]

I believe that is also against the law.....have you done it? Feel confident in your rights to report that to the police? BB’s do not plink...they enter the body and stay there.....

[bert]

So what?.....

Cats are murderers and if out are declared feral and subject to being plinked.

The owner has no defense. If it’s lose, it’s the owners liability

[Fawn]

Oh Brother....i’d like to see you mess with someone your own size with that attitude.

[lormand]

What is the context of the shooting? Its hard to tell what is really going on from a youtube video.

Where the dogs killing or harming the guys cattle? If so, I'll bet his cattle is better off now.

To say that you are getting shriller and more hysterical is an understatement.

Keep your animals in your own damed yard. It is simple, I have been doing it for decades. Both dogs and cats.

The vet taught me how to give a cat a pill and it works like a charm.

LOL, I’m loving the image of fat pigeon owls watching a little weenie dog go potty. Imagine that conversation.

[lormand]

The baby Owls are hilarious. Right about feeding time for them around dusk, the get their parents attention by swaying back and forth...kinda like Ray Charles at the piano.

We watch them until they fly off to other trees out of our view. While waiting for dinner, they often land on the ground and pounce on lizards or bugs.

I don't think my lil' weenie dog has anything to worry. However, we have lots of buzzards....

[djf]

I live in an area where there are alot of overlords and their minions. As well as their hellish, feral offspring.

One of the ferals got under my house and did some damage. I caught him in a live trap, drove it about 5 miles away, and released it.
Five days later, he was back and snooping around.

All bets are off. He used up all his nine lives. Once more and he’s stir fry.

If you complain to the brainwashed neighbors, they’re like “Well, he’s harmless...” or “Well, I have a right to have a cat...” or whatever BS excuse they can come up with.

Yes, they do have a right to have a cat.

I also have a right to NOT have one.
And I will exercise that right!!

[Fawn]

If I sound shrill...it’s because I am not that fond of bullies.....

[lormand]

"If I sound shrill...it’s because I am not that fond of bullies....."

...as long as the bully isn't a cat

finished it for ya

Our cat passed away in March, she was 16, but shortly before her passing we discovered pill pockets. Those things work like a charm. Two words...love them. I only wish I had come up with the idea. Our dogs are so much easier, just cover the pill (or anything for that matter) in PB and it’s gone.

[Ditter]

My dogs are easy just wrap the pill in any kind of human food and they slurp it down. I never heard of pill pockets, that sounds great because cats can be difficult to medicate. My vet (also he is my brother) showed me how to give a cat a pill. You hold the cat by the back of the head in your left had. Gently you sway the cat around until they are concentrating on keeping their balance. Then very quickly you force the cats mouth open, still with the fingers of your left hand. Then very quickly with your right hand you stick the pill all the way down its throat and then hold its mouth closed until they swallow. It is a little tricky and if you have a small hand and your cat has a big head it would be difficult. It has to all be done smoothly and quickly so the cat doesn't bite you. The pill pockets sound easier but a sardine would work as good as a pill pocket I'll bet ya’.

I also have a right to NOT have one.

An important point. But snuffing a feral is a tad different than snuffing Fluffy. If you snuff Fluffy, I recommend you play the knave.

BB’s do not plink...they enter the body and stay there....

Then you're using the wrong BB gun. Seriously.
