"Yet...I’ll bet you feed the birds....LOL. God has a special place for those of you who purposely harm an animal out of hate."

If someone has a bird feeder, it is OK for a neighbor's cat to use it as it's own private hunting lease?

When a person defends his property against predatory animals, is it done out of hate?

Time is running out on the notion that your cat can have free access to anything it wants. It's not just common sense, but it is very neighborly to keep your cat where it belongs, on your property. It is also best for the health of the cat, since you know that no judicious action will be taken against it if it isn't killing other peoples pets on other people's property.

Birds carry over 60 diseases yet you cry over a cat poopin in your yard....SMART! There are tons of homeless cats that are looking for a kind person to feed them and maybe give them shelter. I know how you feel about that....just kill them right? Heartless. How many cats have you killed?

Well Said! My neighbor created a cat habitat in his backyard but the fence means nothing to the cats.

My dogs are mostly house dogs, so they do not mess in others yards or bark incessantly. They do however, wake me up when they hear the cats fight. Population control is in effect.

Funny you should mention bird feeders. My wife has one she likes to look at and has caught more than one cat at the bird smorgasborg. I just laugh, I love cats and if I can catch them then they live inside our house until we adopt them out or we keep them.

Since I dislike birds intensely, I don’t loose sleep over them becoming a cat’s dinner. It’s not like they’re killing bald Eagles but I would never kill a bird either.
